E-Commerce

Tuesday, February 22, 7:00-9:00 pm
College of DuPage Room K-161

Abstract

Many sites are now being constructed using Java based technologies such as Java Server Pages (JSP) and JDBC riding atop an application server.

This presentation will cover basic ECommerce site building strategies and then drive into how one may quickly put together components of an ECommerce site using these technologies.

Demonstrated will be a simple product catalog application using JDBC, JSP, and a handful of simple beans to showcase the ease and speed at which data driven sites may be constructed.
