Creating a Simple
WebObjects Application
This chapter introduces you to the basic concepts and procedures of developing WebObjects applications. You'll develop, in stages, a simple application for the World Wide Web. The application you'll write is called GuestBook.
When you've finished the steps in this chapter, your application will have a single web page containing a form that allows users to enter their names, e-mail addresses, and comments. When the form is submitted, the application redraws the page with the user's information at the bottom.
