Best Server Programming book for Java I've found
I'll be honest, I'm an O'Reilly fan. If there's a book on a subject with a furry little animal on the front, then that's the one for me. So I was a little leary when a friend of mine passed this book along to me. Well let me tell you, this book is fantastic. This is the first book I've found with such a thorough coverage of java server programming. Be forewarned, when they talk about ...

Server-Side Flash: Scripts, Databases and Dynamic Development

Hungry Minds, 2001

Absolutely Brilliant!
A massive treasure trove of information that has just saved me countless hours of messing around with Flash. I've read through the first 5 chapters and went through the included examples and that alone has been enough to make me feel comfortable selling backend integration to my clients now, and being able to deliver a Flash site that does more than just look and sound good. There's no ColdFusion ...

PHP 5: Your visual blueprint for creating open source, server-side content (Visual Blueprint)

Visual, 2005

Friendly and Practical Reference
Programming books tend to fall into two categories, learn by example and reference books. If you are new to programming, it's generally easier to start learning by example suspending your knowledge of everything a language can do in favor of examining a few simple scripts to learn the basics. Once you have written a number of small scripts, a good reference book can guide you in writing more ...

Excellent book ever seen on server side javascript
If any one wanted to learn good SSJS programming techniques, this is the best buy. Authors not only have real stuff but they explained in a much better way than anyother about SSJS concepts with wonderful, real life examples. Ofcourse, you shoud know about javascript fundamentals (core javascript) before you read this book and authors are very specific about the content of the book and their ...

Jeffrey Richter, Jason D. Clark

Microsoft Press, 2000

The best of the few real books about Win32
This book tells how to use existing Win32 API facilities to write solid and efficient server side apps. Most Win32 API books just describe GUI API part like Petzold's books do. This book takes you to the point - how to use EventLogging, Threads, IO completion port, security, Sockets, Overlapped IO, Synchronization, etc and why they work this way. It tells you even more - where most apps losing ...

Check Point NG VPN-1/Firewall-1 Advanced Configuration and Troubleshooting

Jim Noble, Doug Maxwell, ...

SYNGRESS, 2003

Excellent Reference
Even as a contributing author for this book I have found it to be an incredible reference for advanced configuration options. NG FP3 incorporated changes in both the naming conventions and operational nuances affecting your environment. Many of these areas are given limited or no coverage as part of Check Point Training for the CCSE or CCSE+ certifications.

Fantastic Book!! Great investment!
As with the first book, the designs included with this one have helped make me look extremely professional among my clients. I am able to customize a couple designs, show them to my clients, and always close the deal. Plus, I learned a lot about creating tableless designs. The book also helped me to better understand the how e-commerce works. I definitely recommend this book for someone needing a ...

Should be 5-stars
I have some programming experience from college in c and some post-graduation experience as an asp coder at a small startup. I had also done some jsp coding at that startup, but when it came time to go back and make my own jsp pages without an office full of people to answer my questions and provide me with code templates to work inside of, I was lost. This book is a very gentle introduction to ...

Addison-Wesley Pub (Sd), 1999

Masterful coverage of the JWS!
This book is without peer. It is succinct and yet covers the JWS in depth and detail. The writing style is fluid and the organization is excellent. Alas, now that this superb book is available, Sun has announced it is pulling the plug on JWS!

Visual, 2001

Good book
I bought this book several years ago for my son when he was in high school. Since then I've kept it in work and it's been borrowed many times by ASP and Java programmers looking to broaden their knowledge, modify existing systems or to customized any of the many PHP based applications and frameworks that are available on the internet. It's a great book to learn what is still one of the most ...

Doing Web Development: Client Side Techniques

Apress, 2001

Finally! Something for the Client-Side
I finally decided to take the plunge and start doing some Internet development. Considering the number of books available there seem to be very few that covered developing a complete client-side application. Books seem to cover one aspect of Web development such as: HTML, XML, Javascript, etc. The vast majority seem to cover ASP, ASP.NET, and JSP. That wasn't what I was looking for. Doing Web ...

Hungry Minds, 1998

decent book for administration
I was a contributor to the book. I think it's sad that anonymous authors from Seattle are embarrassed about being a part of a project when it was fully within their power to create something they wouldn't be embarrassed about. It's sad when someone partakes of a project, then feels the need to dissociate with it after it is done--and in an anonymous fashion. That being said, I've given this ...

Guide to J2EE: Enterprise Java

John Hunt, Chris Loftus

Springer, 2003

good coverage with design and code
The book gives a detailed tour of J2EE, circa 2003. It describes the high level functionality that is possible, on top of using Java as your base language. The authors choose Tomcat as the Web application server, and jBoss as the EJB application server because these are popular, open source and free. However, they point out that other servers can be used. Namely IBM's Websphere and BEA's ...

Has all essential information you'll need to code datablades
This book explains all the essential concepts involved in Informix datablade programming. It assumes that the reader is competent in C and SQL. It also assumes an understanding of operating system concepts such as threads and process control. The text moves quickly through the subject matter and it is not an easy read. It has a high information density and several chapters and sections must ...

Prentice Hall, 1996

This book needed a better Proof Reader!
If you are an experienced programmer, you might be able to follow what this book purports to teach you. The problem is that many, many of the examples and the text itself contain errors. For instance, Program listing 9.2 indicates that the scripting language is Livescript, not Javascript. Whoops! Figure 2.6 does NOT show the output of program "quote.htm". Table 2.5 repeats itself for some reason ...

Server-Side Programming Techniques (Java(TM) Performance and Scalability, Volume 1)

Dov Bulka

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2000

An excellent, easy read that I could apply immediately.
This book covers the basics of improving the performance of server side java programs by writing different java statements. I like the fact that it had just the answers, not excessive amounts of padding. I especially liked the chapter on taking an existing, well written java program that was a web server, and optimising it in several stages. The stages were consistent with the optimisations ...

Okay for the intermediate JavaScipt programmer. Just okay.
Don't purchase this book for the evaluation version of Netscape Visual JavaScripting, CD ROM. This version is buggy and the CD startup actually failed. When I called the distributor's tech support (as outlined in the book) I was told that group (Coriolis distributors) did not support Netscape products any longer and they did not have a forwarding number. There is a fair introduction to ...
