looks good. BYW, what are you using as the drug database? drugref? or MIMS?

Although Java has been denounced by Richard Stallman
(http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/java-trap.html), I think most people would agree 
it's "free enough". Maybe Sun will open Java just before they go into 
receivership ;-)

What I can't understand is why you didn't use a Python-based Web application 
framework like Zope (http://zope.org/) or Woven 
(http://twisted.sourceforge.net/TwistedDocs-1.2.0/howto/woven.html)
so you can share code with the rest of the project.
