    • Excellent for Beginners / Useful for Experienced Developers

      by Martin Anderson (London, UK) - 2003-07-15  Rated 5 stars
      As someone who learnt JSP from one of the previous books from Manning press (the superb "Web Development with JavaServer Pages" by Fields et al) I was looking forward to this book. The writing style is typical of Manning books and is clear and easily understandable with all basic concepts explained in everyday language that never disappears into unexplained jargon. However, for those used to O'Reilly books it may feel long-winded. The opening sections of the book deal with background and learning JSTL and its expression language, before demonstrating how JSTL can be used in real situations. There is also a final more advanced section on such topics as advanced XML pasing and manipulation, and developing custom tags with JSTL. As someone who uses JSP everyday I found the beginning section familiar territory but I've always found a decent basic introduction can often prevent errors of understanding later on. Another point in this books favour is that if you want to hear how this technology fits into development, wouldn't you rather hear it from the person who happens to be the reference-implementation lead for JSTL than anybody else? This is an excellent book for someone new to JSP who wants to learn JSTL but experienced developers may find the more reference-like style of "Core JSTL" (Prentice-Hall) a better resource. All in all, an excellent book for beginners and a useful one for more experienced developers.
