I would like some advice on what Java server-side alternatives their are to
an applet which is a shopping cart application which allows the user to
drag-and-drop individual items into "an order" panel within the applet
environment on the browser client.
I am eager to port this application, as the rest of the site uses JSP,
servlets, XML, struts..... I do not have much experience of Swing, but
would like to know if there is a way of "equivuilent dragging and dropping"
applet functionality but using server-side components. I realise that HTTP
is not a stateful protocol.
"OR".....
Am I limited to using tick-boxes and using browser "submit" to act as a
trigger for moving the items to the order. I would rather not use
Javascript, or framesets because of browser inconsistencies.
I realise this is a rather general topic, but any suggestions, or online
examples would really be appreciated.
Many thanks.
Miles Davenport.
