java怎么制作网页,你如何使用Java制作网站？

This might be a really trivial question, but I've been writing Java programs at my school and I just found out that I can create websites with Java as well.

How can I do that? Any good books/tutorials for that?

Which is better for Web development, Java or PHP?

Also, when using PHP, MySQL comes into picture and while writing Java programs for desktop, we just use File I/O, so what is better for web dev, File I/O or MySQL?

Basically Web applications are a part of the Java EE standard. A lot of people only use the Web (servlets) part with additional frameworks thrown in, most notably Spring but also Struts, Seam and others.

All you need is an IDE like IntelliJ, Eclipse or Netbeans, the JDK, the Java EE download and a servlet container like Tomcat (or a full-blown application server like Glassfish or JBoss).
