I recently created an interactive Java Applet which communicates with the Google Maps API on a web page. Unfortunately Applets are a thing of the past (in my opinion) and I now need to convert a web page using an Applet into a JSP page which does not require an Applet. My question is whether or not an API exists which can alternatively perform the same functions as a JTable (e.g. get data from database and display interactively)? I apologize in advance if this is a dumb question, however I am fairly new to web development.
