JButton and JSP

[Sameera Abeysinghe]

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place to put this

I have a applet. Bellow is its init method
Public void init(){
Frame1 f1 = new Frame1();
}

This is all this applet does. The Frame class is a class that extends JFrame. Now if I sing the applet and distribute the jar file my Frame class can act like a normal java application that is running on the machine thought it was invoked by a applet
Am I right?
If yes good
If no please tell me why

If I have a JButton in my frame after clicking the button I want to call a JSP page.
This JSP page must invoke a servlet.
How can I do this?

Thanks a lot

Yes.

Use
java.net.URL to request your servlet or JSP's URL.

Thanks for the reply

Now I have another problem which is not exactly a java question.


Since my site use JSP where can I find good web space that supports JSP and MYSQL.
My application is video conferencing software (web based).
I stream the video to the server and a servlet saves them in the server as images and others can view the images.
So since there is streaming involved I think it need a lot of band with two.

Is there a place that I could get about 10 to 20 MB free web space with tomcat and mysql to test my site

Thanks

I don't know of any free tomcat/mysql hosts. The best you get for free is something like angelfire, a couple of megs for static web content and very little bandwidth. Like so many other things, you get what you pay for. A quick google search shows some reasonable tomcat/mysql plans for around $15 a month.
Personally, I have a DSL line with a static IP. I develop web apps for a living and it's convenient to have somewhere that I can have complete control, from the OS to the web content.

I agree. You're not going to find a free host that lets you have enough bandwidth to host a video conferencing reflector!
