JSP page communicating with a MySQL db throw a Glassfih RESTful web service

Question

Hello;
I am en newbie in servlet/JSP stuffs, and as I said in the subject, i'm looking for the best way to make my JSP pages communicate with my db. My application already consists in a RESTful web service that, just for the record, communicates with a JavaFX Client.
(>What i'm looking for is to write datas in my database through this JavaFX client, and it seems like this can only works by passing through a intermediate scripting language like JSP).
To get back on my issue, I don't really know about JSP. I read many tutorials but it still seems confusing to me. Can somebody show me, by a detailed example, how I can do that ? (Preferably by using jsp beans like "usebean", that i find very useful).
Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

don't make your JSP 'communicate' with a database. These tasks are for servlets and specific business logic classes which you can use in your servlets.
To connect to a database, use the JDBC API. Plenty of tutorials about that around the net.
I don't really know about JSPYeah well, you already identified your problem then. The solution is very simple: learn. To be able to learn, get a good resource, such as a book and not some vague tutorials that you find on the net. For example, I always recommend this free online book:
