psuedo plan for project

Hello
I would like some guidance in planning a project if possible.
I am particularly interested in finding out at what capacity MySQL can be ued in netbeans.  

I ask this because I have a access database designed.  I would like to recreate it as effiently as possible in MySQL. What is the best way to do this?

additionally, I am trying to get the proper installation of netbeans6.1 to do the above mentioned(if possible).
I know enough java programing to be dangerous.(armature extraordinaire at best).

I am focusing on developing a web page with the cs3 and the java and the MySQL.

Furthermore,  I have Createative suite 3  and I have worked with most of the programs in it.

In conclusion,  I am a little confused on the matter of designing flow.  

My plan thus far to design(please correct me.  because this is probably not even close.

create the pages with the cs3 and enable them to have continuity.
then figure out how to implement the java programs that can access the database.

basically, I am confused on the web page navigation and the java web server faces navigation and how to merge the two efficiently.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thank
-Steve
