I'm developing a complex site, and part of it will need to call a Java API that was developed by another company. I need to install the Java API on my server and then I need to know how to call it from the site I am developing. The site uses a mix of HTML, JavaScript, PHP, and I can provide more details to anyone who is interested.
Where can I get general info on calling a Java API?
Anyone interested in a professional collaboration on this project?
Thnaks!

Start with
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.java.php.
It gives you some ideas, and your set-up might decide what you do next.
How about doing it with JSP ?
PS. Interested in working with you if you can get me to California!

Thanks for the info f1nutter! I'll check into the reference you gave me, but I am still interested in hiring someone.
The website is already committed to a Linux server, so I guess JSP is out of the question. The Java API has already been professionally developed and implemented on other (competing) websites, so I guess this will not be a big job for someone familiar with integrating a Java API into a Linux server environment.
Thanks again,
Mike Wilkinson

Why do you say Linux rules out JSP? Isn't that what Apache Tomcat is for?

We're lucky to learn something every day, and thanks to this forum I've already learned a couple of things today. Thanks for the tips.
I manage to get around HTML, PHP, mySQL, Javascript without getting myself into too much trouble. On the other hand, if you talk to me about Java and/or Apache, you're going to get an interested but blank stare.
I appreciate any tips, and I'm still interested in hiring someone.
