I have to show the folder structure as a tree view in a JSP page and
return the selected file's details to be updated in a database. Which
one should i go for??
1. Using Swing components viz. JTree
2. Using Javascript with HTML
3. Using custom JSP tags

Thanks in advance

There should be a lot of commercial en open source javascript/dhtml
components that can display data as an tree.

Although the JVM is installed on a lot of machines nowadays, I wouldn't
use a JTree component. A applet would be slightly less good be
integrated with your webapplication, and the JVM loads relatively slow
in comparison to a dhtml component.
