I totally agree. Despite presence of sun.com in my email address I am not (yet!) a Java guru, and have come from an ASP background. The project I am working on forced me to switch to JSP, but I have only recently begun to delve into the truly OO aspects of Java/JSP, specifically the richness of custom tags. The easiest and quickest route is to learn JSP first, only later moving to beans, custom tags, and servlets. If you want to save yourself time in the long run, however, you will study these more advanced topics first. - James =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
