Hmmm ... well, that would be a much more elegant solution certainly. I'm just 
not sure if it's overkill for what I need to do. I mean, all I really need to 
do is take data from a form, stick it in a PreparedStatement, execute a query, 
and return some results.

Currently, it's not really a "separate webapp", it's only a servlet, and I've 
put in a .jar with the other Magnolia dependencies, in the magnoliaAuthor and 
magnoliaPublic webapps. Kind of ugly, but it more or less works. 

The only problem I am having is that I stuck the results of my query in a 
Request attribute (request.setAttribute("output",output) but when I then 
forward to my .ftl (using RequestDispatcher.forward(request,response), as 
recommended by Ruben, above) and try to print the results in my .ftl 
(${output}) Magnolia says "output doesn't exist" or something like that, and 
the page breaks.

How do you print out Request attributes in a .ftl?

If I can just figure out that bug everything would work. But I would like to 
use the method you suggest. Th only problem is that I am [b]not[/b] using STK. 
So when I make a Model class, what Magnolia class do I need to extend? Are 
there any working example out there? I've been perusing the docs and can't find 
any.

Thanks again for everyone for the helpful responses!
