    JSP Questions

    First, if there is a JSP forum topic somewhere other than here, will someone link me it because i couldn't find one.

    Second, the more real reason I am here, I am a newbie in JSP and working on a development project. I tried Googling this answer, but Google obviously doesn't like non letter / number characters very much. In some of the JSP code i have written by someone else, he has a link that states

    [HTML]a href="somefunct ionname.do" title="sometitl e">sometitle </a>[/HTML]

    What exactly is this .do at the end of somefunctionnam e mean and how does it work?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

      This forum is also doubling up as a JSP forum.
      That question is really an HTML/Javascript question.
      The values there are probably just dummy ones judging by their names. an example would be

      <[HTML]a href="javascrip t:document.form s['formName'].submit()>[/HTML]

          Right, i threw in the dummy names mainly because the actual names are in teh project iteself and would have no meaning to anyone not working on it. So essentially what I am looking at is that the .do is a shortened way for the .submit()? if so let's say i have a .java file that it has this function in, how exactly do they relate to eachother?

              It could be any function but in this case
              it was Javascript not Java. Are you sure the methods are Java methods not Javascript? Does the project use Javabeans?
