I have a java program doing some image and data-base manipulations. My goal is to have a web server that serve as an interface to this java program without changing the original code.
Right now, I managed to make some text-type java code work, but has failed all the applet and image type java applications (for examples from oreilly java servlet programming, old version!).
The question is: 1. Would it be possible to have such a web server that can have all the functions of the old java code without any modification? (Or I have to totally rewrite it in the servlet/jsp language?) 2. If possible, what would be the best approach to do it and at the same time to learn the basics of this web service.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. My very shorted knowledge includes, 1. Basic script experience. 2. Basic java programing including applet. 3. Can read most of the script in Ant and Tomcat. 4. Can use build.xml and web.xml to run simple text-type java servlets and jsp. 5. Have a great difficulty to run GUI and image type java code through servlet/jsp. 6. I am an Idiot on "connector", don't know the role of java classpath after compiling is done and was very confused with .jar and .war files.
