I looked at the JAVA code in the URL from the SUN JAVA site. However, being neither competent in JAVA nor an expert on servers, I still do not know if this example is relevant to my question. This question was initially posed to Team-Ada. Is it feasible to create Ada software for processing HTML that will work totally on the client computer (PC)? I wish to use HTML forms as the front-end for a project. There is obvious commercial utility to do this under Windows 98. However, for hard real-time applications any of the following operating systems would permit my application to be the sole executing software on the system. This application can not be interrupted except perhaps by CTRL-Alt_Del or the reset button. I believe that this should be possible with DOS, Windows CE, or Linux with an Ada core. Thank you.
