I found this book to be a great starting point. The books covers the all basics HTML, JAVA, PL/SQL and much more, but these are only the basics.
This book will give you a great insight into the Oracle programming environment, great book for beginners like myself.

Terrific guide for beginners
22 Aug 2001
Format:Paperback
I'm totally new to Oracle, and this book was just what I needed. It led me through every step of installing and configuring Oracle Database, the Oracle Internet Application Server, plus all the tools needed to develop Oracle applications. Then it gave a separate chapter on 5 different methods of writing the applications, including Java, Pl/SQL, Portals, Forms Designer, and Oracle Developer. Everything was clearly laid out, step by step, so that by following the instructions given, I had working examples of all the methods. I especially appreciated chapter 5, Designing an HTML Application, where the author showed an excellent method for designing a web application, starting with storyboards, proceeding to flow diagrams, then writing the code, and then separating the business logic from the presentation code. Using easy to follow examples that lead you from start to finish, the author teaches good programming practices as well as the "how-to's". I'm also used to most books having many errors in them, so you have to troubleshoot to figure out what's supposed to happen. This book was very accurate and complete, and the code actually works. The code examples are also available for download from the website, so you don't have to do a lot of typing. I appreciated the author's clear, easy to understand language. His extensive knowledge of Oracle is evident in the way he made things simple for the beginner. I'll be looking for more books by this author.

Just what the doctor ordered!
18 Dec 2001
Format:Paperback
I couldn't sing enough praises of this book! To be sure, the "beginner" that this is book is aimed at has some oracle development experience, but little - or as in my case - no web development experience. Having some pl/sql programming background, and wanting now to learn how to write web-enabled interfaces for my oracle apps, i couldn't have asked for a better-designed book.
First of all, it takes you through all the web-related jargon (for instance, the difference between a servlet and a server page), and explains how web and database apps fit in the overall scheme of things. Then it clearly demarcates the different approaches one could take to developing oracle web applications, and then - best of all - develops the same little app using each of those approaches.
Of course, there will be a lot more to learn, but this book will start you off right!

Oracle 101 Web applications is a very good book for the beginner of web development using oracle.
The book explains how to develope the Web application using the Oracle techology in a simple and understandable way. It includes the whole cycle of development such as step by step installation of the database, Web Server and Application Server, how to design the web page then how to use different techology (java servlet,jsp, psp,html) to code the web pages. The Author explains and compares the advantage and disadvantage of different language which make us to know when to use the corrent language. Also, the book can make you clearly understand how oracle achieve different new techology (jsp, servlet,psp,pl/sql) in Application server and Apache Server.
If you want to understand how Oracle can achieve the internet techology , this is a great book to start.
