Title: Let this be your struts primer
Product review: If you are about to start learning the struts framework, then i would recommend 2 books, start your learning with this book (the complete reference) and finish your reading with : Jakarta Struts Cookbook.This book does a good job of describing the various elements of the struts framework individually with a Demo that builds on as we progress through the chapters.The second part of the book is a manual for the tag libraries. The example usage of individual tags with attributes is very helpful.This is something that lacks in the usual java documentations.The explaination for the dtds (struts-config,validator,tiles) is also helpful.The author has also build a utility (which is available for free download from his site) called the "struts console" which is a gui tool to configure the dtds.Parts 1 and 3 are good for learning while part 2 servers as a good reference material.
