Best Book on Struts
Hi all, I am a struts newbie and am happy with the struts-documentaion.war Can anyone suggest a good book on struts. I feel that all the books mentioned in the documentation - resources would definately be good, but out of all those 6 shown, which one would be the best buy ! PS : I have to buy the book from my own expenses and my company is not gonna buy it for me.

Re: Best Book on Struts
I bought Struts in Action (the one with the picture of the guy on stilts) and thought it was a very good read . Can't say much about the others, haven't had the opportunity to read them yet.

Re: Best Book on Struts
I read Struts in Action and found it to be pretty good but didn't go into as much detail as would like on some subjects but all around its pretty good. I would recommend having a strong background in JSP/Servlet/Taglibs before reading this book though. Hope this helps. Also if you read the Java Blueprints on Web Teir patterns you will learn a lot.

Re: Best Book on Struts
I found that Mastering Jarkarta Struts by James Goodwill from Wiley was the best quick start. Struts in Action by Ted Husted from Manning is, IMNSHO, the definitive guide. And the best, concise, well written and practical text is the smallest, The Struts Framework, Practical Gude for Java Programmers by Sue Spielman from Morgan Kaufmann. This later text is invaluable for excellent suggestions beyond basic how-to. An excellent reference is the Jakarta Struts Pocket Reference (which I vastly prefer over the full version) by Chuck Cavaness from O'Reilly. Professional Struts Applications by John Carnell, et al., from the now defunct Wrox is also an excellent start. Struts Kick Start by James Turner, et al., from Sams is also good. If you can only have one and need an absolute quick start with great hints and not a lot of hand holding, I'd suggest the Spielman book. Otherwise my one book recommendation would be the Husted text. If you could go with two, then Goodwill and Husted.

RE: Best Book on Struts
I also liked Struts in Action. And I agree that some background knowledge of JSP/Servlet/Taglibs is helpful. I'd recommend Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages by Marty Hall for that background. It was published in 2000, but it is basically all still relevant.

Re: Best Book on Struts
Another good choice would be "Web Development with JavaServerPages" by Fields, Kolb, and Bayern. I always thought of SIA as the second volume to this book (WebDev 201, if you will). Or, even just the Web Services tutorial <http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.0/tutorial/index.html>, which is really quite good. -T. Nathan Anderson wrote: I also liked Struts in Action.

Re: Best Book on Struts
Yeah I'm reading the same too. I would recommend getting both if you are serious about learning Struts. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Hello Vijay, > i am currently referring two books on Struts > one of them is by Ted Husted (Manning Publications and the other one by > Chuck Cavaness (O'Reilly publications) > both the books are great , > the O'Reilly one is available in Indian Reprint. > am not sure about the manning one cause i did buy on on-line copy. > > > regards, > amit - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
