Hello,
I am trying to teach myself about JSPs and Servlets. I decided to
create a web application that allows me to enter some search criteria
and display the results in the form of a list of items comprising some
text and a picture (like any of the shopping sites on the web).
I thought I might use the O'Reilly MultipartResponse class as I saw
that you could have several different content types for the same
response, and I guessed I needed text/plain and images/jpeg on the
same page. It turns out that IE does not support multi-part responses,
which made me realise that I must be going down the wrong track using
the MultipartResponse object. After all, I use IE and can use online
shopping sites just fine.
Could someone tell me, at a high level summary level, how such sites
are created. I want to store pictures in a database and retrieve them
and their description in response to a user search and present a list
of the results, with the pictures and descriptions side-by-side, in
the user's browser.
Many thanks,
Paul
