Please see http://php-java-bridge.sourceforge.net/pjb/installation.php

> 1) . Can we just use JavaBridge for this purpose

Sure.

> 2) If yes, how do we do this exactly -

Please see our FAQ entry "What do I need to communicate with Java?"
and "Do I need a Java Application Server or Servlet Engine?" at
http://php-java-bridge.sourceforge.net/pjb/FAQ.html

Both, Tomcat and Jetty run as a demon. Just type:

  yum install tomcat6

or

  yum install jetty


to install it.


> c) How do we call the java programs from PHP ?

Use the PHP/Java Bridge protocol. Bindings for Python, Scheme, PHP 4
and higher are available. For PHP 5 just use the Java.inc class.
Please see our FAQ entry "What do I need to communicate with Java?"
and "Does it support PHP 4?"
