RE: Strut Books
Here is some input from someone who started using struts from scratch a week ago. So it might be valuable. In a book on struts, I think it would be really good to emphasize on the 'why' and not only on the 'how'. What I find with a lot of information and examples on the struts site is that there is a lot of information on how to do certain things (with a lot of examples) which is pretty good. But because there is a lack of explaining 'why' things work the way they work, it is not always easy to go beyond functionality that is used in the examples. Simply because the user is not always informed on why the things work the way they work.

Re: Strut Books
For Beginners: Getting started with Struts...a walk through of setting up a simple Struts application Explanation of the xml config files How Action Servlet works Brief explanation of the components needed like Xerces and Xalan Life Cycle of a form submission including the execution of the Action class For More Advanced Users: Extending Struts How the Digester works Struts with various application servers, common workarounds to problems Using JUNIT to test Struts applications. This topic alone would make the book worth buying for me! Also, many people who visit this list need ammunition to convince their management to use the struts framework in an upcoming project, so a "Why do I need Struts" section with a compelling case study or two would be a good idea. Good luck, I hope to be writing you to request an autographed copy some day soon!

Re: Strut Books
Are you including the new Taglibs JDBC tag set (which works well with Struts, among other frameworks)?
