Book Description

2 Sep 2002 059600317X 978-0596003173 2

Since its inception in 1999, Enterprise Java has taken the Java programming community by storm--developers have realized its potential for building distributed applications. Today, JavaServer Pages (JSP) continues to harmonize how web designers and programmers create dynamic web sites. JSP builds on the popular Java servlet technology and makes it easier to develop dynamic web applications--even if you're not a hard-core programmer.

JavaServer Pages, 2nd Edition is completely revised and updated to cover the substantial changes in the 1.2 version of the JSP specification, and also includes detailed coverage of the new JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL)--an eagerly anticipated specification of a set of JSP elements for the tasks needed in most JSP applications. This book starts off by illustrating how JSP capitalizes on the power of Java servlets to create effective, portable web applications. It shows how to get started using the Apache Tomcat server, and provides detailed coverage of JSP syntax and features, error handling and debugging, authentication and personalization, and how to use JSTL for database access, XML processing, and internationalization.

JavaServer Pages recognizes the different needs of the two groups of professionals who want to learn JSP: page authors interested in using JSP elements in web pages, and programmers concerned with learning the JSP API and using JSP effectively in an enterprise application. If you're in the latter group, this book also teaches you such advanced topics as integrating servlets and JavaBeans with JSP, using the popular Apache Struts MVC framework to illustrate how it's done. Finally, the author presents how to develop custom tag libraries, using realistic examples that you can use as a springboard for your own JSP libraries.

"This is a complete, comprehensive, and most of all, practical book. The author excels at sharing his vast expertise so web developers can make the most out of JavaServer Pages and related web technologies." --Pierre Delisle, JSP Standard Tag Library Specification Lead

Product Description

Amazon Review

Here is a comprehensive guide to a fast-growing technology for Web developers. JavaServer Pages (JSPs) let you embed server-side Java into Web pages, while also offering full access to other features such as JavaBeans, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), and JDBC database access. The reference JSP implementation is the freely available Apache Tomcat server, so it does not cost anything to get started. All the example code in this book has been tested on Tomcat.

The first part of JavaServer Pages covers the essentials of HTTP and Java Servlets, on which JSPs are based. There is also a guide to installing Tomcat on your Windows or Unix system. The next part, which is aimed at Web page designers as well as programmers, covers JSP application development. There are chapters on scripting elements, error handling, managing user sessions, database access, security, and the use of XML and XSL with JSP. Part III is for programmers, and broadens the scope to include EJB and other Java components, developing custom tags, and achieving highly scaleable applications using database connection pools. The book concludes with a comprehensive reference section.

The author has been an active participant in the official Servlet and JSP working groups, and his book is both well informed and well organised. It provides experts with invaluable tips and insights, while newcomers will find all they need to assess and implement their first JSP applications. --Tim Anderson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Publisher

With JavaServer Pages, you don't have to be a hardcore programmer to develop Java-based web applications. The author provides an overview of JSP concepts and illuminates how JSP fits into the larger picture of web applications. There are chapters for web authors on generating dynamic content, handling session information, and accessing databases, as well as material for Java programmers on creating Java components and custom JSP tags for web authors to use in JSP pages. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Quality 20 July 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Not very many people know how to write good books, even less know how to write good computer books. So i consider myself quite lucky to have come across such an informative, well writen, concise book that just happened to be on a subject i was keen to learn about. I just new after browsing through the book and reading a few chapters, that this would be the only JSP book i would ever need. The book is spilt into two parts, the first is intended to be understood by both designers and developers. But i don't know many designers who have the technical know how to understand whats being said in the first part. So any designer buying the book may be in for a steep learning curve - but hey what do i know - try it for yourselves. The second part is purely for developers, and i would say that if you don't know any java then the second part will be a struggle, but ultimately worthwhile if you are prepared to put the effort in. All in all, the book teaches you all you need to know about JSP's and how to intergrate them with servlets and beans. Excellent.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good in general, but room for improvement 6 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book treats the basics of JSP well - how beans work, the different JSP elements, how to embed Java into pages, flow control etc. It'll certainly get you up and running.

The author does rely rather heavily on his own tag libraries. If you're happy to use these without question you won't have any complaints. As a developer, however, you will to know how how to do this stuff for yourself. I found the section on developing actions somewhat too brief (esp. on the TagExtraInfo classes), and felt this could be lengthened, perhaps at the expense of chapters like 'Database Access' which relies completely on the aforementioned libraries.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thumbs up! 25 Jan 2003
Format:Paperback
It took me about 30 days to get through this book. It was very enlignening concerning JSP. It covered every relevant aspect of JSP, which I was pleased about. The only down-side is that the author uses his own tag-libs in the examples. That didnt really bother me becuase it got me in the mood to use tab-libs my self becuase he was influencing when he was using them in all of his pages. It would help dearly if you has some basic knowlegde of Java. But if you dont then it may get difficult to understand on some of the more complex examples. This book is a good buy!
