I am using the VelocityViewServlet (VVS) and I would like to handle html form submission that will be writing to a database. What is the best practice/industry standard way of doing this?
Just off the top of my head I can think of two ways. One would be to use an entirely different servlet to handle the form submissions. It's certainly more appealing to have everything going through the VVS - two servlets seems pretty kludgy to me.. I could also have a destination template read the parameters and, via a tool, write to the database. My concern there is that the Velocity template language may not be rich enough to pull off that level of functionality. I also wonder about performance. I'm sure there is something obvious that hasn't occurred to me. I looked in the documentation and searched online, but I didn't find anything to address this. Regardless, I apologize for asking such a basic question.
