Dear Folks:

Tranposed from a previous thread
As a related issue, I also want to use Tomcat and IIS on the same machine. My question pertains to the more basic questions involved:

1) I understand and the literature tells me that ASP and JSP are indeed analogous, while ASP teathers you to the MS Platform. What are the basic requirements for the Java code portion of the JSP/Java Bean pairing? Does the bean portion consist of a basic Java class while the JSP portion accesses the Java Bean Object, much like the VBScript Create Object/ActiveX pair?

2) As a more technical question, should the Java Bean portion when parsing data from the HTTP Request ( similar to the Request.Form /Request.QueryString, etc in VBScript ) be written as if the Java code ( minus the socket opening, closing ) were handling the byte stream from/to the client alone? Should my personal code library contain a HTTP Request parsing bean for most JSP Projects?

3) Should a person remove IIS and run Tomcat for all Web Apps? And thereby take over the port 80?

4) Has anyone succesfully installed the isapi redirector on WINNT 4.0 for Tomcat for the latest release? If so, how does this compare to installing other interpreters ( Perl, PHP, Javascript, VBscript , C++ etc ) on Tomcat?
