I realize that you posted to Java newsgroups, and others have already 
provided good advice for Java-based work. However, in line with where 
you say you're currently at, I would recommend investigating a .NET 
approach in parallel with following up the Java/J2EE leads. For a web 
application you might then be looking at ASP.NET MVC 2, using C# as your 
primary programming language, with SQL Server as your database. The J2EE 
parallel to this could be JSF/Facelets in Java EE 6, with Java 1.6, 
using Oracle or PostgreSQL. There are lots of permutations, obviously, 
but these are broad brush suggestions.

Would I recommend one over the other, J2EE over .NET, or vice versa? No, 
I simply recommend being aware of both technology sets. Especially since 
you are essentially coming in at ground zero, which is not necessarily a 
disadvantage here.
