Murach's Java Servlets and JSP
This book methodically teaches all of the skills necessary for developing a commercial web site using servlets and JavaServer Pages. These skills include working with HTML, HTTP, servlets, JSP, sessions, cookies, JavaBeans, SQL, JDBC, connection pooling, JavaMail, SSL, security, and XML. Unlike many of the competing books, this book provides detailed coding examples for working with Tomcat, one of the most popular servlet and JSP servers, and MySQL, one of the web's most popular database servers. A great book for any Java programmer. Unlike most books about Java web programming, chapter 3 of this book provides a crash course in HTML. Since this is essential background for the use of JSPs, this means you won't have to use a second book to figure out how HTML works. Unlike most books about Java web programming, three of the early chapters (4 through 6) show you how JSPs work, how servlets work, and how to use the Model 2 architecture.

Objects First with Java
BlueJ is a Java development environment that runs on top of the Sun Microsystems Java Development Kit making use of the standard compiler and virtual machine. It allows readers to create objects of any class and interact with their methods. For the first time, the traditionally difficult concepts of objects and classes are brought alive in an easily manipulable visual form. This truly "objects first" approach within the customized BlueJ environment will revolutionize the way programming is learned. The book includes a copy of BlueJ. Takes a project driven approach to problem solving, the book is structured along the lines of fundamental development tasks providing readers with clear coverage of the principles of object-oriented programming. Programmers and non programmers who want to learn Java with a state of the art approach and user-friendly programming environment.

Programming with Java
Designed primarily as a first programming text, this work guides students through all of Java's functions. Including a number of case studies from the UK, Barnes (computer science, U. of Kent) presents an "objects-early" approach which stresses the importance of maintaining and object's integrity from outside interference. Information on the use of Java in conjunction with non-Java programs is included. Topics include: An objects-early approach showing how to design and use fully-fledged objects; An accessible introduction to the fundamental object-oriented topics of polymorphism and inheritance; Significant coverage of GUI classes belonging to both Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) and Swing (JFC); The latest coverage of Java 2 Platform API; Usage of power threads for multi-threaded programs; Usage of power threads for multi-threaded programs; Timely coverage of networking, via TCP/IP, to interact with non-Java programs.

Programming with JFC
Using the JFC's Swing API you can quickly create familiar or unique GUIs for your applications and applets using numerous components including trees, tables, lists, and HTML text elements. A library of powerful user-interface components that feature pluggable look-and-feel, Swing lets you build Java programs that can either change dynamically to match the look and feel of any platform they're run on, or remain platform-neutral. In addition, Swing provides a new framework for creating your own components, as well as designing your application code. In this book, authors Scott Weiner and Stephen Asbury take a hands-on approach to mastering JFC. Using tons of working examples, complete tested source code, and a library of ready-to-use GUI components, they: Give you a complete breakdown for each Swing component; Provide detailed style guidelines for each class; Show you how to build your own custom JFC components; Undo framework, animated icons.
