JSTL in Action
Hi there (from law school)! :) As I take a break from reading about civil rights in California, I just wanted to point out that I just found out JSTL in Action is back in stock at Amazon.com. (Some people here had pointed out that it was sold out for a while, but Amazon's stock is now replenished.)

Re: JSTL in Action
Any chance of getting that onto Safari? I know I sound like broken record here, but I love it and I think it's a good deal for the writer/publisher as well. R.

Re: JSTL in Action
I've not seen any Manning books on Safari. I presume this is a big-business thing and not related to a specific book. Manning are quite into eBooks, so maybe they're seen as Safari competitors.

RE: JSTL in Action shipping from Amazon
Unfortunately though, you can only deduct the cost of the ebook if you buy the print book from the publisher which charges full price. The Amazon price is $12.00 off. So if you think your going to end up buying the print book, your saving money if you just buy now directly from Amazon. -Original Message- From: Martin Cooper [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 2:42 PM To: 'Tag Libraries Users List' Subject: RE: JSTL in Action shipping from Amazon -Original Message- From: Wendy Smoak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 8:10 AM To: 'Tag Libraries Users List' Subject: RE: JSTL in Action shipping from Amazon Shawn wrote: Just wanted to let you know that JSTL in Action is finally shipping from Amazon.

RE: JSTL in Action shipping from Amazon
I always assumed Safari was only for OReilly books. Must check it out a bit more sometime, maybe convince the company to subscribe me for a book.

The DataSource may indeed implement connection pooling. Setting it up is as easy as pointing to a pooling DataSource in your application's web.xml. -- Shawn Bayern JSTL in Action http://www.jstlbook.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: JSTL in Action: first few chapters
Now if only I learned to proof read or type :P I skimmed through expression language portion of the book and found it easier to read than the official spec. peter David M.

Re: JSTL in Action: first few chapters
Someone at work bought an electronic version and ordered a few copies. If you are serious about using JSTL, I would recommend it. reading the spec isn't always as simple as one would like. For example, the use of hashmap was totally clear to me, until I read the section in shawn's book. I must have read the spec a dozen times, but for some reason I just did get it. Once i saw shawn's example it was totally clear. peter --- Shawn Bayern [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In case anyone's interested, I just found out that the first four chapters of JSTL in Action have been posted for free at http://www.codercoop.com These early chapters are ideal for novice page authors; if you're a developer, you might want to forward them to page authors you work with.

JSTL in Action: e-book
Hi everyone, I apologize for the shameless plug, but I wanted to correct something I said earlier, and I thought the update might be useful to some people. I had previously said the entire e-book for JSTL in Action might be made available for free on Manning's site. This may still happen, but it's no longer certain; Manning is deciding now. In the meantime, they have made available the complete e-book for $13.50 (plus handling) at http://www.manning.com/bayern If you order the e-book, you get a $13.50 discount on the printed book if you purchase it through Manning. So a lot of people typically purchase the e-book to get the info early, and then they buy a printed copy from Manning when it comes out. The total cost is about what you'd pay for the printed book anyway. (Of course, you can still just preorder from Amazon for $27.97 via http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1930110529 ) Also, some sample chapters are online at the first URL above, if you want to take a look. I told Manning to put up two free chapters that contain lots of sample code, and they agreed. Again, sorry for the shameless plug -- just thought it might be useful to y'all. -- Shawn Bayern JSTL in Action http://www.jstlbook.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
