COSC 304 - Introduction to Database Systems

Please follow the setup instructions located in the assign/setup directory.

The sample code for these examples is code/304_lab7_starter_jsp.zip.

Edit the sample code in the folder WebContent.

Example 1

Here is the code to show "Hello World!" using JSP:

<html>
<head>
<title>Hello World in JSP</title>
</head>
<body>

<% out.println("Hello World!"); %>

</body>
</html>

Click for a demonstration of the Hello World code

The URL of the JSP file is: http://localhost/shop/HelloWorld.jsp

Example 2

Example code to query the workson database and return some answers in a table. Make sure that the url is jdbc:mysql://cosc304.ok.ubc.ca/workson and put in your user id and password.

Example 3

Modify the sample JSP code for querying WorksOn such that for each department you list its projects and then its employees. The output should look like this (click here).

Example 4

You can pass and receive parameters between JSP pages. An example is to create an HTML form that collects user input and then passes this information to a JSP file to perform the query and return the answers.

Example 5

Create your own query form for the WorksOn database. Your form should have boxes for the Employee name and Project name that accept partial matches (using LIKE '%queryString%'). The JSP file should receive the parameters and create a query that lists all WorksOn records where the employee name and project name are as specified. Show the count of the # of records at the bottom of the page. An example query form and system is available.
