With your project, make sure the database is there

* Web based or virtual society

* Last time, we did a java program (page 711 book 2). Run at least the main program (the menu -page 714).

* Is it possible to make java script hooked to a file? Java script cannot be used as web server and does not support a file. You would store data by using an array.

* What is Apache Tomcat?

* Know how to run the program on page 714 (chapter 20 - book2) figure 20.39a

main(){

system.out.println("\t1-insert");

system.out.println("\t2-display");

system.out.println("\t3-search");

*\t = tab ; the numbers (1, 2, 3, etc) stands for input. Input type = button

* page 702 shows us the interface; it is an html form:

<html>

insert record to employee database , etc.

* f=alireza & f=ebrahimi & f=3658

fname = alireza

lname = ebrahimi

ID = 3658

* First CGI program is on pages 699 & 700. Why is it a CGI program (the programs are in C++ and HTML)?
