I have a jsp that checks which clients that are connected. This works
well! When I from a browser loads the jsp page, information about how
many clients is connected is presented in the browser and also
appended to a logfile on the Windows 2003 server machine.

Now I want to write a Java application that is to always be running on
the server. In this Java application there is a timer that expires,
lets say every 10 minutes. When the timer expires a certain method
(lets call it timerEventHandler) in the java application executes.

Question:

How can timerEventHandler execute the jsp so that information about
connected clients is appended to the logfile at every 10 minute?

I would really like som code for this. I have searched the Internet
for a couple of days now. I tried using JEditorPane and construct a
minimal webbrowser that would load the jsp page, but after trying
several examples of java webbrowsers it seems that I am behind proxys,
firewalls, or whatever that makes it impossible for me to load a
webpage. I can however start IE and load the page. Does anyone have an
idea what can be done?

thanks

Here is full example:

Also, when you read your own web page on your own application server
you do not use proxy.
