Description
JavaServer Pages (JSP) is a technology for building dynamic web applications that can access databases and provide an interactive experience
for users. It's a powerful technology with open source implementations (server and platform independent) for building enterprise Web
applications. With JSP, existing business systems can be leveraged with minimal overhead, maintenance, and support. JSP: Practical
Guide for Java Programmers is designed to cover the essentials of JSP including the basic JSP constructs and the relevant implicit objects
as well as more advanced concepts such as incorporating JavaBeans, developing custom tags, utilizing the JSP expression language, building
with the JSP Standard Tag Library, and developing complete JSP-Servlet application. Throughout the book, an electronic bank Web application
is used to introduce new concepts, while demonstrating to the reader how the pieces fit together.
Audience:
Java developers, programmers, and Java page authors
