JSP/Applet communication

[Don]

I'd like to run an Applet within a JSP page that uses a JavaBean to communicate
with a database. The Applet would use a JTree to navigate some objects held
in a vector by the bean. However, I'm not sure how to:
a) load the applet initially from the bean
b) communicate tree events back to the bean that's instantiated by the JSP.

Any suggestions or pointers to samples are greatly appreciated.

Don,

My suggestion would be to have the applet talk to a servlet which uses JavaBeans
to access the database. If it is necessary to have the applet served by
a JSP page, there are several ways to communicate between JSP pages and servlets.
I recommend you take a look at Marty Hall's "Core Servlets and JavaServer
Pages" book. It covers Applet-Servlet communication, JavaBeans, and Servlet-JSP
communication.

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Happy Coding!

Cordially,
