This article examines the processing of a user registration form using JSP and JavaBeans while implementing the Memento design pattern. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with basic JSP syntax.

Forms are, of course, the most important way of getting information from the customer of a web site. This short example will show you how to create a simple color survey and print the results back to the user.

Most forms today store the user input into a database, but while there are many examples of building form pages or form action pages that echo or mail the input, I couldn't find a lot of examples of form action pages that store input into a database. This flash movie is for beginning JSP developer and attempts to explain the basic concepts involved in capturing and storing user input, a process that will be used in nearly every page you develop.
