| <p style="margin-left:8px;"> |
| This screencast shows how jMaki allows to embed and interact with map widgets in your application. We will create two mashups - in the first one, you enter a city name and its location is displayed in map widgets from two different toolkits; in the second one, you extract data from Craig's List, process it using jMaki filters, and then display the relevant information in a map.</p> |

| This article is the second article in a two-part series. In part 1, you learned how to use the Java Persistence API to access a database table and retrieve its data, and then display that data using a Visual Web Table component. Now you are ready to use the same Java Persistence API and Visual Web Table component to add, update, and delete database table rows.</p> |
