Wow.  We should go have a rant/flame war in some more appropriate
newsgroup...  My perspective is exactly the opposite: server-side Java,
especially where XML is involved, is the _only_ realistic option for
production applications.

This thread has actually seen a nice mix of different suggested solutions
(Perl, libxml, msxml, JavaScript gymnastics etc.), and everything has its
own unique and compellilng (based on circumstances) advantages.  One of our
design requirements was ZERO client-side footprint -- no Javascript, no
Java, no DHTML, just a version of HTML that supports forms.
