Well, the steps are something like:

  1. Query the database (with JDBC for example)
  2. Iterate the ResultSet and add each link to a java.util.List
  3. Use an object Link that has two fields - the href, and the text value.
  4. This all is invoked from the doGet() method of a servlet - when you have the List, place it in the request using request.setAttribute("links", linksList)
  5. forward to the JSP (request.getRequestDispatcher("yourPage.jsp").forward();
  6. On the page use JSTL to do the following:

    <c:forEach items="${links}" var="link">
       <a href="${link.href}">${link.text}</a>
    </c:forEach>
