PostgreSQL and Struts Tutorial

From

I'm fairly new to the Java, Struts and PostgreSQL communities, but I have
been swirling on a datasource connection pooling thing for quite some time.
I'm using PostgreSQL 8.0.1, Struts 1.2.7 and JDK 1.4.2_09.  Are there any
tutorials out there that discusses PostgreSQL and Struts in any detail.  If
so, where are they?

PostgreSQL is a database engine.  For Struts purposes, it is a drop-in
replacement by anything else with a JDBC driver.  So a generic Struts
tutorial should help get you going.  I don't have any particular
references, but a  search on "struts" in Google supplied pointers to
several quick start tutorials.

I'd recommend going with JDK 1.5.  It's been out for over a year and is
stable.  If you are learning, you might as well learn on the current
platform.

ditto, postgres 8.1, the lastest is 8.1.3.  8.0.1 was a very early
version of a major new release, and was still in the slightly buggy stage.
