This section describes how an HTTP request for an Alphablox application
is processed by the underlying application server and Alphablox. The following
sections provide a high-level, simplified view of the process. For a more
complete picture, see a book on JavaServer Pages technology.
The description is based on an application with an application context
of
MyApp1 with the following files:
- welcome.html: the application entry page. This page has
a link that points to intro.jsp and firstGrid.jsp.
- intro.jsp: a JSP file with some general Java™ and JavaScript™ code.
- firstGrid.jsp: a JSP file with a GridBlox in it, similar
to the one shown earlier in the section Working with Blox in JavaServer Pages.
The description also assumes that the application server is responsible
for serving web pages without a separate web server.
