It looks like I'm going to get approval to post preview chapters from my OReilly Struts book somewhere on the net. There are still a few preliminary things that have to be worked out, but I don't think they will be a big deal. There are a few things that I'm not sure about yet. If anyone has an opinion, please let me know.
First, where to post them. I was thinking about talking with the folks at theserverside.com, but might also be worth posting them here in the user mailing list as well. I'm not sure. Anyone know of a good reason to go either way. I'm a little afraid of the flood of emails to everyone's box that this could generate, but it might also generate some good discussions? Also, because of time and everything that's going on, I doubt that I'll be able to post all of them. So which ones are of the most interest? Here's what I thought: Chapter 2. The Web Server/Servlet Container Relationship Chapter 3. Overview of the Struts Framework Chapter 4. Configuring web.xml and struts-config.xml Chapter 5. Struts Controller Components Chapter 6. Struts Model Components Chapter 8. Custom Tag Libraries Chapter 10. Exception Handling Chapter 12. Internationalization and Localization Chapter 13. Struts and Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) Chapter 16. Using Alternate Presentation Technologies Chapter 18. Logging in a Struts Application Chapter 19. Addressing Performance Chapter 20. Packaging your Struts Application Chapter 21. Struts Design Strategies (As many as I could get to before I finish the book) Anyone would be able to download the chapters, read them, and send me their comments (both good and bad). I'll make any neccessary changes to the source document. I would probably post a new one every week or so. This may take a couple of weeks to get everything setup, but I have 9 that are ready to go. I also have a complete 1.1 storefront application that I could make available. It's what I'm using to showcase the Struts framework. It will eventually include every 1.1 feature in it. Let me know what everyone thinks. Chuck Cavaness -- Sent via jApache.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
