Any good books on web application using JSP/servlet?

Does anyone know good books on how-to build enterprise web application using JSP/servlet? Aside from the book "Head First JSP/Servlet". Development using Netbeans is more preferrable.

I'm not however, so in stead I'll tell you to investigate yourself and see which one you prefer. Nobody is going to tell you which one to use as there is no such thing as a 'better' or 'best' server. Just different servers each with different issues.
And the community edition of JBoss has had many issues in the past (because Red Hat of course wants to advise you to go to the enterprise platform which ain't cheap), but JBoss 5.1 was a rock solid piece of software that I have had zero problems with (after reading the odd forum or two). JBoss 6 builds on top of JBoss 5.1 and provides the full JEE6 web profile; this means it does NOT provide a certified 'full' JEE6 stack yet. This means nothing however as all the services you may need in an enterprise application are already there.
BTW: for simple servlet programming, don't neglect Apache Tomcat. Its a lightweight server that just works.

Tomcat JSP/Servlet... free server?

I have been trying to do some research on JSP/Servlet servers. Is the Tomcat addition to the Apache web server free to use (like Apache itself)?
If not, are there any JSP modules / plugins that are free?
TIA

Examination system using JSP/SErvlet and MySQL

Hi
I am new to JSP /servlet.
I am designing online examination system using JSP/Servlet and MySQL ,where multiple choice questions would be selected randomly from the database. After completion of the examination user gets the results ,also the results would be stored in the database for the future reference.
Can anyone guide me for this? If possible give me the code for similar type of application.
Thanks

Sounds like you want someone else to do your homework for you, did you not read this:
"This forum works so much better when you try to program the code yourself, then let us know where it doesn't work. Otherwise you learn very little, and we work a whole lot."
and this
"If you want free code, have you tried searching Google for it? You may want to consider looking for survey software. It will give you the question/answer capabilities then all you have to do is find a way to grade the survey (if you will)...
If you are using Tomcat as your server, which you probably are, there is a jdbc tutorial included in the documentation, that is the fastest way to set up your database.
As for your random selection, have a look at Math.random(), this is one way to generate random numbers, you will need an algorithm to convert this value (between 0.0 and 1.0) into a form that can be used to select information from your database.

Using JSP/Servlet to write Word Document to BLOB

Hi
I need some help pls
When I use a normal class with a main method, it loads the word document into a blob and I can read this 100%.Stunning.
With a JSP/Servlet I cannot get the document out again. The "format" seems to be lost.

hello,
there are multiple documents out there, describing the oracle reports server setup. try doc.oracle.com for documentation.
also it is part of the online-documentation.
you need to install 9iAS enterprise edition. the server is pre-configured and will listen to the url http://yourserver/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe
passing only this url you will get a help-screen, describing the syntax.
regards,
the oracle reports team

File upload and download using jsp/servlets

How to upload any file to the server using jsp/servlets. . Help me out

You can also try the Jenkov HTTP Multipart File Upload. It's a servlet filter that is easy to add to your web-project. After adding it, you can access both request parameters and the uploaded files easily. It's more transparent than Apache Commons File Upload. There is sufficient documentation to get you started, and there is a forum if you have any questions.
Jenkov HTTP Multipart File Upload is available under the Apache license, meaning its free to use.

Sample jsp servlet bean (MVC) code

We want to look into the JSP/Servlet/Bean area for our next project. We wish to understand the technology and as such want to hand build simple applications, and as such do not want to use JDeveloper just yet.
We have searched and searched for suitable material but cannot anywhere find a sample application that :
A. Lists contents of a databse table
B. Each item in trhe list is a link to a page that allows that item, to be edited.
C. A new item can be added.
D. Uses the MVC model of JSP/Servlet and bean (preferably with no custom tags)
There are examples that are too simplistic and do not cover the whole picture. Having spent over 100 GBP on books lately, only to be disappointed with the examples provided, we need to see some sample code.
The samples provided by Oracle are too simplistic. They should really have provided ones built around the EMP and DEPT tables.
Anyone know where we can get hold of this sample code.

At the risk of sounding really dumb the examples are just too complex. There does not appear to be anywhere on the web where I can find a simple JSP/servlet/bean example of the type I described. There is enouigh material describing each individual component, but what I need is an example to cement the ideas, but the ones suggested are too much for a newbie. Even the much vaunted Pet Store thingy causes my eyes to glaze over.
I dont expect anyone to have written something with my exact requirements, but surely to goodness there must be something that:
1. On entry presents a search form on a table (e.g. EMP)
2. On submission list all rows in EMp matchiung the criteria.
3. The user can either click the link 'Edit' which opens up a form dispalying the row allowing the user to edit and save the changes, or click the 'New' button to show a blank form to create a new EMP.
All this via a Controller servlet, with the database logic handled by a java bean, and all the presentation done via JSP.
To me this is the most obvious and instructive example of this technology, but after days of trawling the web, and looking through a number of books, I cannot find such a thing.
CGI with Perl DBI/DBD was a breeze to work with compared to this stuff ..... maybe ASP with SQL/Server would be a more fruitful use of time.

Jsp/servlet hostin

I need a good web host to develop jsp/servlets any suggestions

You have not specified that you want to have a free hosting or paid.
if you want to get a free host then you can get 5mb sapce at www.mycgiserver.com
else If you want to get paid hosting then
www.hostorange.com is the best i think so....
there are some other websites providing java hosting at less cost...

How can i display data on tha same page in jsp/servlet

Hello friend,
I am storing 50 items in a dataBase. i ve two buttons/links name previous and next. i ve to display 10 items each time in the same page when i click next button and the revrese for previous. through JSP/Servlet.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
chintan anand

I'm not sure this is the best practice... try to add the item in the arraylist, then when u click next button, add 10 to the counter. subtract if it is a previous button. thats it!
ex..
for(int x=counter;x<=arraylist.lenght();x++)
....print item here......

How can I call EJB from JSP/Servlets in iWS?

Hi!!
My JSP/Servlets are on iWS, and I deploy EJB on iAS.
In this case, I don't know how JSP/Servlet call EJb on iAS.
I'd like to know how I can set JNDI name in JSP/Servlet on iWS.
I will thank you if you give me a simple example source using JSP/Servlet
and EJB.
Thanks in advance!!!
- Park-

Park,
Why Are you running your JSP/Servlets in iWS instead of iAS? For whatever
reason,
look at the Converter sample from iAS. You will be doing RMI/IIOP in this
case and the sample explains in detail what to do.

How to use connection pool in jsp/servlet ?

I found I can "lookup" it in either java beans/servlets/JSP using JNDI. why?
what is the best practice to use it in a jsp/servlet web app considering JNDI lookuping expensive?
Thanks!
Bo
Edited by: BobXu on Nov 17, 2008 2:27 PM
Edited by: BobXu on Nov 17, 2008 2:32 PM

Huh?
You can lookup a JNDI resource from anywhere in java code you want to. As long as you have a repository set up to search on :-)
Of course whether that resource is available or not is a different matter. If you let the server set up the JNDI resource for you, then you can't run it standalone outside the server without something else setting the same thing up :-)
So its not so much a limitation of beans, but just the environment you run the code in.
Best practice? Don't write sql queries in JSP pages :-)
For the rest you might consider the DAO pattern. Or ignore SQL altogether and let hibernate do the work there for you.

How to implement this function in JSP/Servlet env?

Hi all,
I working on a project, it provides functionality to upload file using JSP/Servlet. In the first JSP page, there is file location and submit button. After user select a file to upload and click submit button, a message, like "sending file to XXXX", will be shown on the screen. Once uploading and validation are done on the server-side, a successful/error msg will be shown to user.
Here I have a question for the "sending..." msg and the successful/error msg. They should be put in one jsp page or in two separate page? how to implement them?
Thanks for any help!
Tranquil

For the sending message... Well, the thing is, when you click submit, it's sending the file to the server and the server is processing it, and this is all done before the "complete" page is sent to the server. So one would need to use some Javascript on the page before the actual submit happens to show some message. This is done on Ebay when you put something for sale, you can upload an image, and there is a little popup message telling you that it's uploading, and it is removed when the process is done. Now, I'm not sure the exact details of how this works, but my educated guess is this:
1) The onsubmit function of the form checks that the file upload fields have a value (no need to popup a message if no file upload, since that's what usually takes the time, although it could just be assumed there is a file). If a file is to be uploaded, or just want to show the message anyway, a new popup window is opened with the window.open method and the "sending" message is shown (either written via Javascript or just load a small web page to the window).
2) The popup window, since you can't transfer the window object from the form page to the next page, has to check window.opener for some value that the success/error page would have to set. The success/error page could use it's body onload function to set a variable in it's own window object to denote that the page is loaded. The popup window can use a looping check using setTimeout or setInterval in Javascript to check for window.opener.isLoadedVariable to be present, and if so, close itself.
I've never done that, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work.
