Familiar with JSP servers
This "JSP from simple to deep" series of tutorials is intended for intermediate and advanced users and requires the basics of HTML and Java. You should connect HTML webpages together and use Java for programming. If you do not have this foundation, it is recommended that you lay the foundation first. This series of tutorials will teach you JSP by compiling simple examples to complex examples. This series of tutorials are explained in a step-by-step manner. In order to maximize your progress, we recommend that you debug all the examples yourself during the learning process. The example at the beginning may be very simple, so you must be patient at the beginning, and do not think it is too simple to skip. If you debug the example carefully, you will soon be familiar with the essential methods of JSP.
Well, let's start our first tutorial: getting familiar with JSP servers.
If you do not have a JSP network server, download it before you start the tutorial. The following servers can be downloaded or developed for free:
Blazix (1.5 Megabytes, JSP, Servlets and EJBs)
From www.blazix.com/blazix.html
ServletExec (3.8 Megabytes, JSP and Servlets)
From www.uniyeware.com/servletexec/
JRun (11 Megabytes, JSP, Servlets and EJBs)
From www.jrun.com/
WebLogic (44 Megabytes, JSP, Servlets and EJBs)
From www.beasys.com/
WebSphere (105 Megabytes, JSP, Servlets and EJBs)
From www-4.ibm.com/sofeware/webservers/
If you do not have a server, I suggest you download Blazix because it contains the tag Library (which can be used for subsequent tutorials on the tag library ). Blazix is also very small and can be easily downloaded and run on all operating systems, including Windows 98, which is in the mainstream. Another advantage is that it is faster to install.
To really learn JSP, the most important thing is that you need to debug the Tutorial example on a real server. The best way is to learn JSP skills through your own practices. If you do not have a server, download and install it first.
After installing the network server, you should learn the following knowledge about the network server: Where should I place files? How to access a file from a browser (starting with http: instead of file )?
You must first create the following simple files, for example:
<HTML>
<BODY>
Hello, world
</BODY>
</HTML>
How to place a file and browse it in a browser (http: //). This step corresponds to different network servers, so you need to refer to the network server documentation and find out the answer.
