Creating Client-Side Components


In earlier chapters, you learned about client-side Java components. Client-side components are Java applets that your application can use instead of server-side dynamic elements to interact with users. WebObjects comes with several premade client-side components. To use them you simply add them to your application in much the same way that you add a server-side dynamic element.

You can create your own client-side component if the premade components don't suit your needs or if you already have a Java applet that you would like to use as a client-side component. This chapter describes how to do so.
