5.0 out of 5 stars
Very comprehensive
I really liked this book. most of the other WAP / WML titles either just talked about WML or low level-WAP protocols. Thhis book covers key concepts like security and has a lot of code examples. I have even used the JDeck wap library at work. I have never seen anyone use the multi-part MIME stuff with WML before. very cool, bleeding edge stuff.

Another book by this author
Hougland. Another books by the author that wrote JSP for Dummies. This guy rehashes what he learned reading from others. He has no new ideas and just wants to turn out books. Don't buy this book....

Author and publisher should be ashamed - Poorly written!,

This review is from: Essential WAP for Web Professionals (Paperback)
Apparently some people buy into this kind of work. But I found it to be poorly written and filled with inaccuracies. It appears that no technical reviewers reviewed this book before it was published. A very sloppy book - like a first draft of a book that was never completed.I was especially disappointed to see the name Prentice Hall on this book. This publisher should be ashamed.

Bunk,

This review is from: Essential WAP for Web Professionals (Paperback)
Hougland churns out books for the sake of churning out books. This one is a worthless rehash of a questionable technology. Save your money on something else. The writing quality is extremely poor, cursory, and appears to be rushed - probably to get this to market before the WAP standard is obliterated anyway.

Worthless,
By A Customer
This review is from: Essential WAP for Web Professionals (Paperback)
The only reason this book was written was simply to get published. It is a poor example of a technical manual. Hougland is a pretender who writes like he knows what he is talking about, but is only good at ripping off other people's work.Save your money for toilet paper or Huggies. |
