(Obviously) a Java newbie here..

Just wondered how to make Java DLLs for use in web page
design (same as VB DLLs)?

It is even possible? or does Java get used differently in
this context? <insert witticism here>

Its really I guess about using the right tool for the job. I doubt that it is possible to create DLL's using Java -as its main attraction is that it is supposed to be OS independant, and with DLL's you are making a commitment to one type of OS.

If you need to write DLL's I suggest VB or Delphi (and excellent development tool and language - far superior to VB IMO.) Do bear in mind that if you are thinking of writing server-sode applications, DLL can cause problems and you may ber better creating an exe file instead. Hope this helps...

java dll's don't exist unless u want win32 specific code. what java supports are packages and jar files. Jar files are like zip files that contain your code and can be distributed, and used in coding and runtime operations. any teaching yourself java while your asleep type book will cover these.
