[thelist] Good place to start learning JSP?

[.:: romina ::.]

An excelent book is Professional Java Server Programming by Wrox. It rules!!

Another very good book on Java and JSP is Thinking in JAVA,  by Bruce Eckel.
You can get that book for free too at www.bruceeckel.com

Although having the *book* is much more cute :-)

Good luck and welcome to the world of the beans :-)
