Servlets & Servers
Answer:
Try Resin, www.caucho.com
Try tomcat from http://jakarta.apache.org - pure Java,
servlets 2.2, good stuff! Tomcat is good. It's not fast, but it's very easy to setup and
good solution for development. Since most heay-duty servers do implement SUN
specification, one can migrate application in no time.

Jigsaw is also good but doesn't support the Servlet 2.2 spec
Both of these are open source with BSD-like license.
There's also Jetty http://jetty.mortbay.com/ Artistic license, Servlet 2.2 spec
compliant), GNU Paperclips
http://www.tapsellferrier.co.uk/gnupaperclips/ GPL, claims to be moving towards
Servlet 2.3 spec compliance) and also
vqServer http://www.vqsoft.com/vq/server/ which is free but not open source.
Finally many of the commercial servers can be downloaded free for trial periods.

How can I get access to Cookie set at the Client?
Answer: The following code should access a cookie on a client. It reads in all the
cookies on the machine. And checks there name for whichever one you are looking
for.
Cookie[] cookies = request.getCookies();
for(int i=0; i < cookies.length; i++) {
Cookie thisCookie = cookies[i];
if (thisCookie.getName().equals("Cookiename")) {
// Do whatever you want with the cookie....
} else {
// cookie doesn't exist...
}
}
The Cookie class is in package javax.servlet.http.Cookie
I'd like to provide to the showDocument() method of an applet the URL of a CGI
program...
I'd like to provide to the showDocument() method of an applet the URL of a CGI
program with including a certain number of (URL-encoded) parameters to this URL
(which is the same as doing a GET HTTP request).
What is the maximum size I can give to this URL ?
Answer: If I remember exactly it something around 240 for many servers. Maybe
less, but not more!!!
1000000%
I read it last year in "Java Servlet Programming" from O'Reily.
