A Practical Guide for Designing and Building Dynamic Web Services.
Intermediate - Advanced Level Users.
This book teaches you how to create dynamic content, personalised, customised, and up-to-the-minute content, a key ingredient of site development on the Wold Wide Web today. The book covers all aspects of JSP development, as well as comparisons to similar dynamic content systems such as CGI, Active Server Pages, Cold Fusion, and PHP. It clearly demonstrates the advantages offered by JSP as a full-featured, cross-platform, vendor-neutral technology for dynamic content generation.
The book focuses on the use of component-centric design via Java Beans and custom tag libraries for separating the presentation of dynamic data from its implementation. JSP brings important benefits to both web designers, who focus on presentation, and web programmers, who focus on implementation, yielding improved division of labour and increased productivity.
