Good JSP book for beginners to intermediate level

Hi:
I want to buy one book, could you suggest one?
how is "JSP 2.0: The Complete Reference, Second Edition"?
thanks.

well, that depends very much on your background. If you are really new to JSP and Java, I would suggset 'SAMS Teach Yourself JavaServer Pages in 21 days' by Steven Holzner. It is very simplified and easy to understand. However, note that since it is some basic, it doesn't cover a lot of in-depth details.

A good Java book for beginners?

Hello
I am new to Java language. This year I will go in university (computer science major) so I thought I could study a bit during the summer. So I have choosen to learn the basics (or more) of the Java language. I dont know any other programming languages (So I am completely new to programming too).
I would like to know which is the best online-downloadable book with which I could start to learn the basics of Java (using the Sun's SDK or Borland's JBuilder Personal)? Any suggestion would be appreciated.
P.S. Is it good to learn programming using Java as the first language? A friend of mine told me that is better to start with C, then continue with Java.

Everyone will say that the language they first learnt is the language you should start off with. Java is a good as any language to start with. Whether to by a book or use an online tutorial depends on you.
Online tutorial are up-to-date, but require a good internet connection and plenty of access to a computer.
Books can be carried around (read in bed etc.) but learning about computers away from a computer is weird.
A good book (to download in PDF or buy in a shop) is "Thinking in Java" by Bruce Eckel. It takes you from beginner to expert, in only 1,125 pages!!
If that's not your thing, try the sun tutorials, links on your left.
good luck

Best Practical JSP Book for PHP developer

Hi Friends,
I am new to JSP and want learn basics of JSP so that I can do simple web page works.
I am a PHP developer with one and half years of experience.
Can anybody tell me what is the best JSP book for beginners or any web link with lots of simple jsp example?
--Sujoy

Before you learn JSP, you need to learn Java. I heard 'Head First in Java' is a good book. Install Eclipse IDE (its free) and work through some of the book's examples in it (as you read the book from cover to cover). Then Install Tomcat (its free) and the tomcat plugin for Eclipse (its free). Then read a book on JSP (cover to cover). I like the book 'JSP in action'. It covers both JSP and servlets. Then, create a hello world JSP in Eclipse, then a hello world servlet in Eclipse.

DVD start menus and books for beginners

I would like to make a custom start menu using a jpg graphic and my own music. It would just have 2 options start video and scene selection.
I was fumbling around with PE11 yesterday and did it by accident. I added the picture and then added the audio with drag and drop....but when I tried to do it again, I could not remember what I selected.
Also is there a good book for beginners?
Thanks,
Matt

Pending further information, this is what I came up with using
Premiere Elements 11 Windows
General/Grid
and its matrix_pal_s_mm.psd (for main menu) and its matrix_pal_s_sm.psd (for scene menu)
My Photoshop Elements is presently not allowing me to open the Photoshop Layer Sets in the .psd files, so I picked the above theme so I could get around having to do that.
This is the first try result
Main Menu....
Scene Menu
I tried it out in a DVD-VIDEO standard on DVD, and it did not look that bad.
My advice is to look at the theme as is to see what it is all about, and, if interested in getting a look like above, I will give you the step by step. But, you will need Photoshop Elements or Photoshop for the background exchanges. I did not find a theme where I could get a clean enough background replacement with just the customization within the Movie Theme section of the program. Again, Photoshop Elements that will not open the Layers Sets is OK in this instance since we are not opening any Layers Sets, we are just replacing backgrounds at the .psd level rather than within the project.
If interested, I will post further details which should be quick and easy to follow.
Thanks.

Books for beginners

Hi is there any good books for beginners in java i would like to buy one for reading over the holidays. To go over what i have learn during the year.Thank you.

I'm sure that there are a great many books on the subject..... one book that I never see among lists that are available on Q/A forums like this is "Introduction To Java Programming 7ed by Y. Daniel Liang." I am still just a beginner like most on this forum, so why would I be so biased? Well I do not own the majority of books on any list, but I can say that my book explains things on an elementary level, up to very advanced. How do I know that? The chapters are many, from; Chap 1, "Intro to computers, programs, and Java programming," to chap 37, "Java Database Programming." Practically every chapter is supplemented with a breadth of work using the current Java classes that are available to anyone, but also many end of chapter questions that reflect reasonable "leaps" form basic to advanced. It includes much more from the companion website as well. In short, you write the programs in the chapter questions, and in doing so become very acquainted with the API. I like the "Head First" book, because it can give a nice angle on a complex subject as well. However, the "Head First" book is kinda written for a separate contingency. If you want to learn to program, you must have many problems to try and destroy. This seems to be the key. You must have the means to try something and try again in order to know where your prior mistakes are. When you realize how you made a mistake, you simply correct it, and this is the very biggest part of learning anything about programming. You have to screw things up on your own!
Again, I am just a beginner like you. But by learning basics, with appropriate chunks of the API, I wind up with an expanding toolkit from chapter to chapter. Get a book that will do this for you. Many books will give you examples for things that you should never be worrying about at first. Then you get used to a "cut/paste" type of situation. Do you really know what you are doing then? Do you think you will get a fantastic response from a learners forum like this? Take it seriously and get the best book you can. It should be very broad reaching and explanatory as well. When I flip through the book that I own, I wonder how I will get to those places. Yet every time that I finish a chapter, I am prepared for the next..... and on it goes. It takes time, and a short book is unrealistic. No book is perfect, but a wise first choice will be priceless.
Hope this helps. Peace.

you can directly buy the book from the publisher by writing him at "*[email protected]*"

Can anyone recommend a good instruction book for intermediate Mac users?

I have been using Mac for 3 years now so am not a total beginner, but still need help in many areas of OS X use. These forums are brilliant and thanks to the willing help from more expert members I have learnt a lot ( thank you), however there are times when just having a book open in front of you is the easiest way to get to grips with something. Can anyone recommend a good user manual for people like me who don't need a real beginners guide but also don't want a mind numbing, in depth, advanced text. I already have Maria Langers Visual Quickstart Guide which is useful but is exactly what it says, a quick start, and David Pogues Missing Manual which I find a little frustrating as he seems to fall short of explaining exactly how to do something after he says it can be done!
I guess what I am really after is a clearly written book that is good for beginners and more advanced users alike, with screen shots to show you what you should be doing.
Grateful for any suggestions.
macbook white 2ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6) 512mb ram and 60gig hard drive,

Hi again,
Many thanks for the feedback and the star!
For troubleshooting, Dr Smoke's Troubleshooting Mac OS X eBook is invaluable. Again, I have the Panther edition. I haven't, yet, felt the need for the Tiger edition with so many of the tips available free via his FAQs.
The only drawback, of course, is that when one is in a fix and possibly unable to boot up, the e-book isn't accessible unless one has a copy on another Mac.
Have fun,
Adrian

A Good JSP Book

Hi pls can someone recomend a very good 100% book on JSP..?
I would be greateful.
Thanks

Save your money. There is plenty of information available free
on the web.
Start here at the Sun website. There are tutorials, articles, and the
official JSP specification.
Try the IBM website. They are also big boosters of JSP. Their Redbooks
are excellent, also free. Their books frequently refer to VisualAge for Java and WebSphere, both IBM products, but you do not have to use
the IBM products to read the books. Just ignore the IBM-specific stuff
and substitute whatever products you are using.
There are also JSP-oriented sites, such as JSPInsider. When all else
fails use your web search engine (Yahoo/Google) and do a search.
Here are some links you might find useful:

Any Suggestions on Oracle Forms Book for Beginners?

Hi Everyone,
I want to learn Oracle Forms development. What book or references can you suggest for beginners like me?

Good tutorial book for non-flash developer?

I need to learn flex for our company. I am a .NET developer
although I have used Flex 1.0 before and was doing well with it. I
am by no means a flash developer, so I'm looking for a good
beginner to intermediate book for someone who is looking more at
flex application development rather than design.
I need a book that focuses more on database/XML/webservice
integration and not something that focuses SOLEY on rich GUI's.
Yes, I would like for the book to focus also on design, but not
have that purely be the focus.
What do you all recommend? Thanks!
Ryan

I found the book Adobe Fex 2 Training from the Source VERY
helpful. I read and did everything and am also finding it useful as
a reference. One reason I liked it is that it takes you through an
appliation step by step refining the application over time as you
"discover" more succinct/efficient ways to do things (e.g. making
components and a more reusable design). It takes you through
multiple ways to get at server stuff too. I also highly recommend
reading the Cairngorm articles posted on Adobe's website to help
you get off on the right foot using good design principles for
Flex.
P.S. I am very much a newbie myself and am still climbing the
learning curve.

Good JSP Book?

I am doing a bulletin board with JSP and could do with a good reference book.
Could anyone recommend one?
Thanks

I think Hans Bergsten's O'Reilly book is excellent.
Marty Hall's "Core Servlets and JSPs" is pretty good, too.
Shawn Bayern's "JSTL In Action" is a terrific book on JSTL.
I recommend ONLY JSTL for JSPs these days.

Any Adobe Acrobat X Forms Books for Beginners

I'm wondering if there is any good books for a beginner who doesn't know
nothing about scripting. I have Adobe Acrobat X Professional and I'm creating forms
and would like to learn how to do calculation using scripts to do things. Does anyone know of any books out there?
--Gilbert

It's not a book, but the best resource by far for learning about Acrobat JavaScript programming and working with forms is: http://pdfscripting.com Also, see what's available at: http://www.math.uakron.edu/dpstory/pdfblog.html #12-25 in particular.
