FYI, if anyone is thinking about buying this book from atlasbooks.com, they charged me 9.00 USD for shipping. No shipping charges are mentioned until after the order was confirmed, then a second confirmation e-mail was sent 7 hours later that included tax and shipping. So my confirmed 69.95 USD order is now 84.72 USD.
I'll let you all know what I think of the book when I get it.

In addition, there is an appendix on Validator and Tiles (the appendix is just a reprint of the web site's by Cedric and David). The full TOC is on baseBeans.net / book. Nothing on Role Based Actions. I do cover JDBC DB security realms (JAAS), XSLT, SQL/DB, etc. I guess in a while there will be posts from readers who completed the book. Also news.basebeans.com / mvc-programers will have student reviews of the people who took the class and read the book as well. I will announce Amazon. They will cary it for $89. Vic ps (Long answer why $89 for Amazon: A regular publisher takes something like 6 months to publish a book and gives you 10% and take all the rights mostly. So I kind of chose POD publishing (print on demand) where only 1,000 copies get printed at a time. But marketing is limited, so I have to register the book with Amazon after they build up stock (vs the web site that is pubishing it, that can do it today) which takes time. My current estimate is that a week after X-mass will it be on Amazon, and because Amazon takes %40 cut... prices is higher. They also will use a 2nd publisher. That's right, 1 book, 2 publishers. That is even a longer story. Once you publish a book you will find all the way's they get you. ) Nathan Anderson wrote: > After seeing your table of contents I wonder about what is in this book. > Which of the extensions that are not part of the official struts > distribution does the book cover [i.e. Validator by David Winterfeldt, Tiles > by Cedric Dumoulin, Role Based Actions by Nic Hobs, etc.]? > > Also, will there be a sample chapter to read on-line before deciding to > purchase the book.
