Hi Ralph,
Its not quite as complicated as it sounds, and if you work on it a bit
it will come pretty quickly. I would agree that some prior knowledge of
Java is a good idea.
The best thing to do is start off with the apple docs which walk you
through writing a few sample applications.
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Web_Applications/
index.html
From there, webobjects is well suited to the web application you are
trying to create. However, it requires that you design the application
your self, and implement it using webobjects. Webobjects will help a
great deal in making sure you application performs well and provide a
number of features which will be helpful to you.
Best of luck,
Alex
