Java for the World Wide Web

by Dori Smith

Visual QuickStart Guides are rapidly becoming the easiest, clearest and most sought-after titles for learning complex new Internet technologies. Even a quick glance at web design sites for the non-programmer (like C|net's Content Builder) shows that designers, graphic artists and content-creators want to use Java. The web is filled with content creators who have used a pre-built Java app., and probably not been 100% satisfied with the results. With just enough Java to get going doing something useful, a strict focus on visual Java (meaning using Java to make interface elements for web pages), and a quality guarantee that the Java in this book will work in most - if not all - web browsers, Java for the World Wide Web:Visual QuickStart Guide is sure to be an indispensable guide to the decade's most important new programming language for the web scripter.

Not bad until the author got to real-life examples, then the format of the book didn't work well for me. Also, this would have been much harder to understand if I hadn't already known something about Java.

a bit difficult for newbs but overall a good overview and introduction.
