Which JSP book serves up the best lesson?
In this article, I'll look at six of the latest JSP books offered. Those books include: Pure JSP: Java Server Pages by James Goodwill ( Sams, 2000)
JavaServer Pages by Larne Pekowsky ( Addison-Wesley, 2000)
Instant JavaServer Pages by Paul Tremblett ( Osborne McGraw-Hill, 2000)
Web Development with JavaServer Pages by Duane K. Fields and Mark A. Kolb ( Manning Publications, 2000)
Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages by Marty Hall ( Prentice Hall, 2000)
Professional JSP by Dan Malks, et al. ( Wrox Press, 2000)
Table 1 below provides a quick overview of the main characteristics of the reviewed books. I will go into more detail, reviewing each book individually, later in the article.
The J2EE coverage is besides servlets, JDBC, and XML coverage.
The API Reference shows the book's coverage of the javax.servlet.jsp (and possibly javax.servlet ) API documentation. Personally, I have never needed to look at the javax.servlet.jsp API reference. For clarity, I should mention the API reference is not the list of implicit objects and JSP directives. I mean API documentation on the JspEngineInfo and JspFactory classes.
As for Web servers/databases, just mentioning a server in the book is not sufficient to be listed here. Basically, instruction on how to configure the Web server or add a JSP file/Web application to the Web server is necessary and/or how to set up/use the database server.
Before starting the reviews, one thing I should mention is that I am the author of one chapter in Professional JSP (Wrox Press). Given the small contribution I made to Professional JSP, I feel I can still give an objective overview of that book and the others. Since it is clearly not my favorite book, I hope you can feel the same.
