Sounds good, I still haven't experienced any problems (and geez its fast!). Just by-the-by, GnuJSP is Gnu's Java Server Pages implementation of the JSP 0.91 specification. JSP pages work very similar to MS's Active Server Pages (dynamic page generation based on scripting tags and embedded objects). So you can embed Java code in HTML for things like db access, session tracking etc. It operates using a single servlet and an Apache action handler for *.jsp files. Any time after the *.jsp file changes, and then 'hit' by a client, it is recompiled into a servlet class and loaded into memory. That's one of the beauties of JSP, the servlets remain in memory so there's no latency for loading from disk i.e CGI. Cheers, Joe. -- Joe Shevland Principal Consultant Turnaround Solutions Pty. Ltd.
