Customer Reviews

For a 24-hour series, it is a darn good book!

I am prejudiced against books that have 24-hours or 21-days in their title. They usually are like a sloppy sandwitch that your 2-year-old will put together in 2 min!This book is different. I have to agree with previous reviews - setting up Tomcat is never trivial. it took me a long time to get used to the vagaries of Tomcat. No book can document the Tomcat fully since by the time the book is out in the market, the Tomcat version has changed beyond recognition!! I have long since given up trying to look for a book to tell me how to set up Tomcat. Use of the web resources instead is very effective for this purpose.Beyond that, this book packs the most effective set of JSP programming tutorial. The topic is huge - please check out some of the Wrox Publ books! But the author does a good job of presenting 60-70% of all that info in not-so-confusing easy-to-work-with examples. There are some code snafus but these are trivial; hey, I am yet to buy a book without code mistakes.If you really are serious about getting a good jump start on Java Server Pages, this book is a great springboard. You do need to graduate to a "Professional JSP" book right after that for some production level work.I still consult this book when I need to brush up on some basics. Neglect the "24 hour" phrase, and you have yourself a decent JSP book.
