Complete reference to what?: This book is terrible. The Complete Reference to JSP? If I wanted a book to explain the HTTP protocol, HTML forms and other non JSP topics I would have purchased another book. The examples are simplistic... Too simplistic. If your seriously trying to learn JSP find another more advanced book with real examples.
detailed, trustworthy, well written: superb: I had previous edition and bought this one too. Previous one proved for me to be absolutely invaluable for understanding of technicalities of jsp pages and underlying mechanics of jsp and servlets. Because of many changes between last and current releases of jsp and servlet technologies two editions of the book are different but format, luckily, did not change: author adheres to concept of giving concise but clear and very friendly explanations. Despite of confines of single book, he does not short cut on good design for his examples therefore making them especially valuable. It is classic approach to jsp; approach that is not cluttered by hastily explained now-fashionable frameworks like Struts. It gives you foundation and knowledge for making your own framework. I would highly recommend this book to anybody interested in java-based web development. I, myself, am using Struts framework for my current project but the books by Phil Hanna are giving me special power named solid knowledge of theory and concepts that you cannot find in books specialized on one particular topic like EL, Struts etc. Overall, I am very grateful to Phil Hanna, because he, obviously, stays focused on his task of producing REFERENCE that is needed and gets referenced all the time in order to produce your own unique recipes. I am sure that the author can write a lot of other books on web technologies that are just mine field for unaware developers (faithfully yours). I would buy those books.
Just great: I'm usually not a big fan of the osborne series, but once in a while, they get it right. This book is indeed complete. The only reference you will need.
Descriptive Book: Indeed a nice book. I wonder where i will get the source code of examples used in this book?
Complete!: Book is excellet, packed with useful examples and appendixes, indeed a COMPLETE REFERENCE to JSP.
