I'm not a Java programmer, and I only need a "hello world" sample in order to make a comparative table between Perl, PHP, Python and Java with Web Services.

Why Java 1.4.2[1] and not a current Java?
Are you comparing it with Perl 4 and PHP 3?

What type of XML parser are you using in Python, PHP and Perl? SAX? DOM? other? It would be silly to compare a Perl SAX parser with a Java DOM parser or vice versa.
