Awhile back I worked on an application that required that the data be displayed with charts. I found a package called JFreeChart that solved all my problems and is very easy to make use of both for server side and client side displays.

check out www.jfreechart.org if you still need this type of api.

Best regards,
Laurie

Congratulations on your exam score and best of luck in your job hunt. Could you please email me your summaries: [email protected] ?
Thanks!

The link to the review on theserverside.com
is article on struts on theserverside.com
It still worked as of August 4, 2002 though the review process has ended. The Jakarta site's Struts page is a good source.

How could this tool be best used to prepare for the SJWDC? In other words, what is a good strategy or "recipe for success" using this kit?
Thanks,

Yes, integrating all of these things is possible.
One of the client projects that I've just worked on used BEA WebLogic 6.1 and utilised JSP/Servlets for the presentation and EJBs for business logic. There were certain parts of the application where messages were received by MDBs, and certain parts where session beans sent JMS messages in response to user actions from the presentation tier.
With the J2EE reference implementation, you get everything that you need to start building complete J2EE systems - including a copy of Tomcat that is a part of the server.
What sort of problems are you having?
Simon

Is it possible for an individual developer to download and use BEA Weblogic 6.1 without having to buy a license. That is, is there a personal copy for development purposes only (no commercial usage) that is free (non-expiring)?

An additional attribute that could be included in this type of app :
personalization - the customer is "remembered" when logging in again by greeting them with their name and showing them a list of what they looked at previously. Amazon has this.
More security to take care of bad data or unwanted input from someone visiting the site.
Performance tuning.
Just some ideas.

Could you also send me a copy? My
