• Intended for web page authors and Java programmers, this guide provides solutions to common JSP design problems--such as validating user input, personalizing content, and caching data--and explains how to combine JSP with other Java technologies. The third edition covers JSP 2.0 and Servlet 2.4, and adds a chapter on developing custom tag libraries as tag files. Annotation ?2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
• JavaServer Pages (JSP) has built a huge following since the release of JSP 1.0 in 1999, providing Enterprise Java developers with a flexible tool for development of dynamic web sites and web applications. While point releases over the years, along with the introduction of the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), have incrementally improved the rough areas of the first version of the JSP specification, JSP 2.0 takes this technology to new heights.

  JavaServer Pages, Third Edition, is completely revised and updated to cover the JSP 2.0 and JSTL 1.1 specifications. It includes detailed coverage of the Expression Language (EL) incorporated into JSP 2.

  0, the JSTL 1.1 tag libraries and the new function library, the new tag file format that enables custom tag library development without Java code, the simplified Java tag library API, improvements in the JSP XML syntax, and more. Further, it details setup of the Apache Tomcat server, JSP and JSTL syntax and features, error handling and debugging, authentication and personalization, database access, XML processing, and internationalization.

  This book 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 as a part of an enterprise application. If you're in the first group, you learn from the practical web application examples in the second part of the book. If you re in the latter group, you appreciate the detailed coverage of advanced topics in the third part, such as integrating servlets and JavaBeans components with JSP using the popular Apache Struts MVC framework, and how to develop custom tag libraries using the JSP API, with realistic examples you can use as a springboard for your own libraries.
