Setting up java
Hello,
I intend to learn Java. I have jre 1.6.0_05 installed. I know PHP and I intend to start with web applications in Java.
In the FAQ's there is this new to java link. Following it lead me to http://java.sun.com/javaee/downloads/index.jsp
I am not sure what suits my requirements on the 5 options listed there.
Can you please point out what I should download from the 5 options listed there?
Thank you.

If you're just learning all you need is JavaEE. However, I strongly suggest that you familiarize yourself with Java SE first.

From what I have read, I cannot develop web apps with Java SE. Am I right here? And the link I have posted contains Java EE, Java EE + SDK , App platform + JDK and Java EE + Tools. From what I understand, you are referring to the Java EE. Is that right?

You need the JavaEE download or the "JavaEE + JDK" if you want the "normal" Java SDK as well which I would suggest If you don't have it already.

It's been ages since I last touched JavaEE so I don't know what has changed but unless you know some other Object oriented programming language like C# or C++ you'll probably be better of first learning "normal" Java before jumping into webdev... But someone with more recent experience can advise you better.

With SE alone no. But EE is built on top of SE. You're going to need that knowledge.

Since you don't have an SDK installed I'd get the Java EE + SDK.

Thank you for your responses. I learned c++. Didn't work much on it though. I know basic concepts of OOP. If I have any problems, I can always come here . One more question: I have IIS installed. Will that be enough to test jsp pages or will I need anything else? If I need another web server, can I run IIS and the new one at the same time?

JSP and servlets requires the use of a servlet container. Tomcat is a good choice.
