Hi,

You might want to take a look at DbForms for some ideas:

http://www.dbforms.org/
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/07/18/dbforms.html

It is based on Struts, and therefore JSPs and taglibs, but it would be
useful if you could come up with something similar based on Turbine and
Velocity.

Regards,
