I would suggest writing JSPs to read the form and print out the form values.
Then, create the beans, put the form values into the beans, and print out
the bean's new state. Then, do whatever it is you want the beans to do and
test that. Basically, since you the the front end developed, gradually work
your way to the back. Since you're new I would suggest taking the slowly
and testing at every step so that you are not overwhelmed by the breadth of
the system.

Any class files that your JSPs need (including Beans) go into the
webapp/{MyWebApp}/Web-inf/classes folder (remember to maintain the directory
structure that represents your packages), or you can create a JAR file and
put it into webapp/{MyWebApp}/Web-inf/lib

You use databases in Tomcat the same as with any Java application - use
JDBC.
