TEASERVLET TUTORIAL MAY 18, 2001 PLEASE SEND ALL COMMENTS TO: OPENSOURCE@DIG.COM COPYRIGHT  2000 BY WALT DISNEY INTERNET GROUP PREFACE The TeaServlet is a framework that sits on top of the Servlet API and creates a separation between data and presentation. The TeaServlet requires a servlet container to run in. This tutorial is designed to guide new users through a few tasks that will lead to an understanding of the TeaServlet. We will look at how to build applications that work with it. We will also explore the Tea template language and Kettle, the template editor for Tea. The tutorial is meant to supplement the other documents that are available on the TeaServlet, Tea, and Kettle. For TeaServlet installation, see the TeaServlet User Manual. The tutorial presumes that you have an understanding of Java programming and an understanding of servlets. If you don t, refer to Appendix A: Servlet Resources for a list of servlet resources.
