I know nothing about JAVA.
I have a website that the user enteres a request for information about a fixed number of categories and when it is submitted, the information is pulled from a database and displayed.

I just got introduced to Google App Engine. My goal is to have something that would work on smart phones. Are my goals possible to mix the two together? can I make a java code for the form that retreives information and it would conside with Google App Engine service?

Am I on the right track, or am I just getting confused?

Where do I start to learn move about making a simple form in JAVA. The form will only have about two to three fields and a submit button.

Use JSP (A Java technology) with Google App Engine. A good end-to-end
example at: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/gettingstarted/usingjsps.html

When you mean java , do you mean j2me on the phone or java on
appengine.
please be a bit precise.

I suggest you build an android app client to construct the query which
will be sent to the appengine backend.
then the AE backend server will generate the response and send it back
to the android app.This can also be
done with a j2me app on mobile or on a python app for symbian series
60 handsets.
