2.0 out of 5 stars Good Intent but is Content checked?, November 17, 2000
By "l_kwong" (Singapore Singapore) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Java Server Pages from Scratch (Paperback)
I thought the whole purpose of this book is to teach one in working with JSP. However, I'm only on the 3rd Chapter and I have spent a fairly good amount of time trying to debug the sample codes and piece together what the author is trying to get at. It's a good thing I'm an experienced programmer and good at debugging, otherwise I would have thrown my hands up in exasperation long ago.

What the book is trying to achieve is good (that was why I bought it) but if the rest of the chapters and the sample codes are going to be as buggy as the first few chapters, I don't think the author is going to convince many readers into using JSP through his efforts.

1.0 out of 5 stars Java Server Pages From Scratch, April 28, 2001
By Eric Rehnke (Diamond Bar, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Java Server Pages from Scratch (Paperback)
I was truly amazed and flabbergasted at the other reviewers who gave this book more than one star! This book stinks! Why, you ask? Any beginner that starts going through the exercises will soon find that there are LOTS of problems. I am a 20 year I.S. veteran and I could not figure out some of the problems in the examples. It was obvious that no one did a quality check on this book and Que should be embarrassed. I have sent several messages to Que support but have not received any updated example code. The Que support person even promised to send me another book of my choice, but, even after several weeks it hasn't arrived.

So, I am very disappointed and wish I would have read the Amazon reviews before I wasted my money. Shame on Que and Sahu.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well-written and comprehensive!, November 20, 2000
By atrayee (Connecticut,USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Java Server Pages from Scratch (Paperback)
I found this book to be very comprehensive and covering a wide range of topics and actually displaying many aspects of what one can do with java server pages.The chapters deal with usage of jsp as a scripting language,imbibing usage of Java programming language,javascript and Java Beans too. The author has done a very good job of kind of networking the recent technologies ...javabeans ,sending email using javabeans through a JSP and also actually developing an auction site using JSPs.The approach is very gradual and easy to understand without jumping into too much of technological jargon. I liked the way the book has dealt into explaining the JSPs ,the initial chapters which would be helpful to even a non-web-programming savvy person, as the basics of web programming,HTML, have also been explained.An experienced web programmer could skip the first chapter. Finally,a great job in introducing the 'hot' technology of wireless/mobile commerce and integrating the JSP with it. Good book for pouring into the world of JSP....well -written!

I have many of the "from scratch" books. Every one of them has so called errors in syntax (smirk). I have concluded that they were placed there on purpose. Read more
