My first WAR file

Finally I have a reason to write something in Java - a servlet to make queries against the eBay API and return the results to a Javascript application in a browser. So now I can add dom4j (Java DOM library), jaxen (Java XPath library) and JSON / org.json* (Javascript-friendly serialisation protocol) to my list of technologies I have used.

Also, today I built my first WAR file, to send an early version of the code to the client. Easier than expected, a pleasant surprise!
