Sorry, I'm not very good at plugging ;-) You find some information about
it at the O'Reilly site:
<http://www.ora.com/catalog/jserverpages/>
This page will be updated with more details before it's released. I'm
also setting up another web site, dedicated to the book as well as JSP
technology in general. More about that later.
The book is announced and available for pre-orders at:
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/156592746X>
<http://shop.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?isbn=156592746X>

Not yet, but I hope a preview chapter will be available at the time it's
published (late October or early November).

Everything is tested with Tomcat 3.2 Beta 4, on Windows (98 and NT) and
Linux (Red Hat 6.2), with JDK 1.2.2 and JDK 1.3 (Windows only).
It describes JSP 1.1 with plenty of custom action examples, for things
like database access, access control and internationalization. It also
describes how to combine servlets and JSP ("Model 2").

Thanks. I hope you like the book when it's published.
