That site has not a stick of Java on it that I could see. The server
code might be written in Java, but what controls the colour is the CSS
style *** the generated HTML uses. You change that, and it totally
changes the look. See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/css.html

You can peek at the style sheets it is using, and if you are feeling
bold save the page and the style sheets locally and fiddle with them
using a tool like TopStyle to totally change the way that page looks.
<LINK rel="style***" href="/css/cool.css">
<LINK rel="style***" href="/css/bleu.css">

CSS has almost nothing to do with Java or Servlets. The idea is to
control the presentation layout, colours, spacing, borders etc from
the style *** so you can change it without changing the server side
code.
