Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Advanced JavaServer Pages is a book for the hardcore Java coder, which presents architectural and programming techniques to build robust, scalable applications.

David M Geary warns in the book's preface that this is not intended as an introduction to JSP. It picks up where entry-level tutorials leave off, diving into custom tag development and designing advanced application architectures. A driving passion on the part of the author for separating content development from programming underlies the presentation.

Custom tags and templates are covered in depth, illustrating how a thoughtful design can lay the foundation for application development that keeps designers and programmers from stepping on each other's toes. Design frameworks that integrate with servlets and beans are presented with exhaustive discussion and architectural diagrams. Other key topics include the encapsulation of database access and security. All of the code, including a very comprehensive case study, is available on the book's Web site.

Advanced JavaServer Pages is a valuable look at the issues faced by expert Java developers. Proficiency in Java is a key prerequisite to this guide, however, because it is addressed to a sophisticated audience. --Stephen W Plain

I really like this book since it starts where the other books about JSPs left off.
David Geary has really catched the essence of JSP and their use in this book. The book focuses a lot on custom taglibs which can be pretty useful since the use of taglibs allows you to extend the functionality of JSPs. Another focus in the book is how to implement a MVC architecture, which is covered in-depth.

Beyond the Basics! 22 Jan 2003
Format:Paperback
The basics of JSP are easy to learn for anyone familiar with HTML and Java but it is difficult to learn the many advanced features. This book covers the complexities of JSP very well and helps to make them simple and easy to understand.

The book starts with coverage of JSP custom tags, one of the most important features of JSP. HTML forms and JSP templates are covered next. The section on templates is extremely useful for those who wish to use pluggable components to build web sites. The best part of the book for me were the middle chapters which cover designing a Model 2 framework using servlets and JSP. The framework is generic and can be applied to any web site development effort. He then demonstrates how event handling can be used within the framework to provide internationalization, authentication, and form resubmission trapping. (Have your users ever created additional profiles by using the back button?) The next chapter demonstrates using custom tags to access databases. The author then shows different ways to process XML with JSP. The final chapter is a case study demonstrating all the techniques used throughout the book.

Code samples are found throughout the book and I had no trouble getting any of them to run in Tomcat. The tag libraries are provided as open source by the author and will be helpful for most developers. The book is very well written and will be useful for anyone interested in advancing their knowledge of JSP.

I found this book to be very helpful as a bridge between "known" java/jsp practice and J2EE web tier features. The book is dense with ideas, well explained, and the samples are clear and work fine.
