Add a Transaction

---

You have finished adding user interface elements to the client application and defining command actions. The last major addition to the client is a Transaction. A Transaction is a connection to a servlet, with options for sending and receiving data.

1. Choose the Transactions tab in the Palette. Transactions are only available to users of Simplicity for Mobile Servers. If the Transactions tab does not appear in the Palette, you cannot continue with this tutorial.
2. Drag a Transaction onto the Transactions node in the tree. The Transactions node is right above the Display node. A new Transaction with a name similar to transaction0 will be created. The transaction has several subnodes which will be used to set up the transaction and the information which is sent to and received from the servlet.

At this point you need to build the servlet which will interact with the client you have just built. You should leave Simplicity for Mobile Devices open.
