Written by a key contributor not only to the JSP specification, but also to the JSP and Servlet reference implementations, the second edition of this comprehensive guide to JavaServer Pages shows you how to embed server-side Java into Web pages, while also offering full access to other features such as JavaBeans, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), and JDBC database access. In addition, this book covers the new Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL) in exhaustive detail-- in fact, most of the examples are updated to use this groundbreaking new technology from Sun Microsystems, Inc. Filled with useful examples and the depth, clarity, and attention to detail that made the first edition so popular with web developers, JavaServer Pages, 2nd Edition is completely revised and updated to cover the substantial changes in the 1.2 version of the JSP specifications, and includes coverage of the new JSTL Tag libraries-an eagerly anticipated standard set of JSP elements for the tasks needed in most JSP applications, as well as thorough coverage of Custom Tag Libraries.
