If your main concern is books, then 1.1 is probably your best bet. 1.1
also happens to be in all likelyhood the most-used version even now.
Paul is right, 1.3.5 does offer a lot, but you won't find any books on
it yet, or even tutorials at this point, so most of what it offers above
1.1 you'll be on your own to exploit.
However, saying 1.1 means there are a lot of good features you won't
get, so it's a tough decision given your criteria. Any of them will
work in the environment you have, so it's not an issue there.
I'd probably echo Paul's advice in the end... might as well take the
latest and greatest, with the understanding that the books you get may
not be 100% accurate... then again, backwards compatibility has always
been an important goal of Struts, so the books you find *should*
generally still apply.

Go with 1.3.5. It's the best yet and works wonderfully.

hi,
I started a new job recently where they use struts/tiles for
everything, I had never used this technique before and would like to
learn it well.. when I go to http://struts.apache.org/downloads.html
I see versions 1.0.1, 1.2.9, & 1.3.5.. but all books I have checked
out online don't cover 1.3.5 yet.. (Oreilly's Jakarta Struts 2nd
Edtion, for example, covers only 1.1.. as does wrox's struts book..)
I'm running Tomcat 5.5, JVM 1.4.09.. does it matter what version of
struts framework I use? I just want to find a version that when I
buy a book that version will be covered in the book... does it matter
if I don't use latest struts version?
thank you..
