I recieved my copy of the book just 2 days ago.
This book seems more like a companion to some course that must be
instructor led.
What good are these exercises if they contain no answers?
I can sit and make up exercises all day!
I appreciate the author's attempt to shed some light on the world of
struts,
but I would definately have to say that I do not beleive he has succeeded.
I think trioal and error will teach me faster.

Thanks Vic, for wanting to help others learn Struts. However, as you point
out in your book, you are not an author. I would rate this book at 1/2 star
of a possible 5. I suppose it's true that you can do the exercises and get
up on Struts, but I think that there is more useful information of this
type
on the web.

I am new to both Struts and Java, and have been buying lots of books. I
have
been very happy with every Wrox book  I have purchased. "Professional JSP
2nd Edition" has an excellent chapter on Struts by Steve Wilkinson.
"Professional JSP Site Design" is my favorite book so far, with an
introductory struts chapter with a database example by Sathya Narayana
Panduranda and three additional chapters with a database example by Ted
Husted. I would rate both these books at 5 stars.

Ted Husted will have a book out in a few months, see
http://husted.com/about/scaffolding/index.htm .
