Javascript in next release?

Currently, a servlet takes care of accessing the SQL database and posting the relevant results to the browser.

It should be possible to use an applet to access the database via JDBC. Some javascript on the page should be able to request that the applet make a query, then grab the data after the applet gets it, and format it for display on the page.

Still working out how to do this, but it should be possible.

This would eliminate the need for a user to have a servlet-capable servet to run YDP.
