Java Technical Insight of the Month
Java/XML-based Shopping Cart
By Mark Volkmann, Principal Software Engineer, Object Computing, Inc. (OCI)

This month we examine an approach to creating a dynamic web site using Java servlets, XML and XSLT.  The application selected to demonstrate this is a shopping cart.  Users can add items to their cart, remove them and purchase the contents of the cart.  Click here to view the complete article (245k PDF).  The compiled code and data files needed are available as a zipped web application archive (or .WAR file) which is ready to deploy in any servlet engine that understands how to use WAR files.  The source code is also included in the WAR file.  Instructions for how to run it using Tomcat from jakarta.apache.org are included in the PDF file on page 36.  

We welcome any comments and feedback on this article.  Comments and suggestions may be sent to jnb.
