Anything similar to XMLHTTP in JAVA?

[Sakheb]

I have a J2EE app running already, but now I need to download a HTML page from the server side. I know the XMLHTTP object can download a page, but it runs on the client side...which is no good for me. Is there a way in JAVA (servlet) I can access a HTML file and store it in a variable somewhere?

thanks!

You can download a web resource using the java.net.HttpURLConnection class. This question has been asked loads of times before here - so try using the search function if you need examples.
