The Java version of PHP and MySql?

[silverglade]

Hi, I did php and mysql for a while. making dynamic web pages. But I want to do the java version of that , but I don't know what it is called. Is it just Java and MySql? or is it JDBC? Any help GREATLY appreciated. thank you! Derek:D

JEE (i.e. JSP and Servlet) and the connection pools of the container/server used along with a JDBC driver.

Thank you masijade, I want to get this book on "jps and servlets" but it doesn't mention anything about database programming. I was wondering what book keyword I would be looking for on Amazon, should I get a book on "Java EE"? please.

Beause you wouldn't be doing any "db programming", of course. You would be using a connection pool and either JDBC or a framework (which will JDBC itself) to interact with a db. Simply see the tutorials

- The Java EE 6 Tutorial
- The Java EE 5 Tutorial
The J2EE(TM) 1.4 Tutorial

And listed them from newest to oldest for a reason.
