i did not suggested a replicated version in javascript. i guess you  
prefer avoid this ;-)

i just suggest you to copy your back's code in a scriptlet (in the  
jsp), grab some request parameters from the user(by drop down or  
whatever), run your code to make the calculations and display it at  
rendering time: not a big deal! (just use bypass url to be sure to  
workaround html cache persistence))

but maybe some constraint i'm not aware are on the way? (the only you  
mention is the fact you need to maintain 2 versions of code, but i  
have the feeling this is a piece of cake vs all the ajax code you  
plan to write server & client-side , just my 2cts)
