Product Description:
Looking to study up for the new J2EE 1.5 Sun Certified Web Component Developer (SCWCD) exam?
This book will get you way up to speed on the technology you'll know it so well, in fact, that you can pass the brand new J2EE 1.5 exam. If that's what you want to do, that is. Maybe you don't care about the exam, but need to use servlets and JSPs in your next project. You're working on a deadline. You're over the legal limit for caffeine. You can't waste your time with a book that makes sense only AFTER you're an expert (or worse, one that puts you to sleep).
Learn how to write servlets and JSPs, what makes a web container tick (and what ticks it off), how to use JSP's Expression Language (EL for short), and how to write deployment descriptors for your web applications. Master the c:out tag, and get a handle on exactly what's changed since the older J2EE 1.4 exam. You don't just pass the new J2EE 1.5 SCWCD exam, you'll understand this stuff and put it to work immediately.
Head First Servlets and JSP doesn't just give you a bunch of facts to memorize; it drives knowledge straight into your brain. You'll interact with servlets and JSPs in ways that help you learn quickly and deeply. And when you're through with the book, you can take a brand-new mock exam, created specifically to simulate the real test-taking experience.

I ordered for 'Head First Servlets & JSP' which shows 2004 edition on web-site. But much to my Surprise, I got March 2008 (2nd Edition) of the Book which is the latest version for the SCWCD 1.5 exam. Thanks to Amazon for giving the best.

Looking for some good material to revise/learn JSP technology?
Having an impression that each book is similar to the previous one?
Want to pass SCWCD exam?
When you answered `yes' at least twice, I think that you shall definitely read Head First SCWCD by Bryan Basham, Bert Bates and Kathie Sierra.
The most important difference between this book and all the rest is the way how authors describe technical issues. Don't consider them easy - they are really tricky sometimes.
It is a very funny book although the topic is not so easy. It's marvelous that authors describe the problems not too detailed. After the introduction they redirect to specification. In comparison to other books I must say that reading something about existence of specification is rare in practice. Here the redirection is very brief - includes chapter numbers and document name.
Cons? I know that JSF is not on the list of SCWCD but I missed it. EL & JSTL is quite hard to understand relying ... Read More

This book is just fun. Besides all the kung-fu, I actually learned something about JSPs. This is the kind of textbook I'd write, if I ever do...
I really appreciated the hands-on sections and all the detailed notes. It is the first textbook I could read from cover to cover (almost there) and that doesn't put me into sleep, but put ideas into my head.
I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to have a good and fun start in Servlets and JSPs.

Very clear! It seems easy to program servlets with this book. Graphics are simply perfect!!

This is one of the best books available out there.
I was under the impression that this version of the book covers java 1.5 enhancements, but it doesn't.
