Jakarta Struts Cookbook

by Bill Siggelkow

The Jakarta Struts Framework is a popular, open source platform for building Web applications from top to bottom using Java. While this popularity has led to a wealth of online and in-print documentation, developers still find themselves faced with a number of common tasks that are not clearly and succinctly explained.

In these situations, programmers can now turn to the Jakarta Struts Cookbook, a collection of code solutions for common—and uncommon—problems encountered when working with the Struts Framework. Among many other recipes, this book explains how to:

Display data in complex HTML tables.
Use JSP, the JSTL, and JavaScript in your user interface.
Define static and dynamic action forms.
Validate data and respond to errors.
Use logging, validation, and exception handling.
Integrate Struts with persistence frameworks like Hibernate and iBATIS.

This look-up reference is just what today's time-pressed developers need. With solutions to real-world problems just a few page flips away, information is instantly available. And while the book's solutions focus is on getting to the point, each recipe's discussion section imparts valuable concept and insight from a Struts veteran.

Chapter 14 focuses on Tiles, with recipes to get you started along—with some more advanced uses for Tiles. The chapter also shows you new ways of generating HTML within the context of a Struts application.
