For the current edition of this book, please see Murach's Java Servlets and JSP, 2nd Edition (ISBN 9781890774448). 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.

For the current edition of this book, please see Murach's Java SE 6 (ISBN 9781890774424). If you want to be a professional Java developer, this book is designed for you. It moves at a quick professional pace, yet doesn't leave you wondering what in the world it's talking about. As one programmer said in an email to us: "It cuts right to the essential information, providing the perfect balance between too many details and too much information. Example apps are incredible - they give a great starting point. I bought another well-known Java book, but they crammed too much information in it, to the point that I spent several hours trying to learn what I learned from your book in about 45 minutes." As you'd expect, this book teaches you all the core Java skills you need on the job, showing you how to take advantage of time-saving Java features like: 
* the Scanner class * type-safe enumerations * enhanced for loops * typed collections * generics * autoboxing * the StringBuilder class 
But beyond that, it gives you the practical training you need in both object-oriented programming and data access programming. In particular, it shows you how to use a 3-tiered architecture to separate the business classes, presentation classes, and database classes of an application. It shows you practical techniques for populating business objects with data from files or databases. And it shows you how to use inheritance, polymorphism, interfaces, and the factory pattern in a way that is not just understandable but also reflects what's done in the real world. The result is, you'll soon be writing Java applications the way the best professionals do. 
To download the book applications... You can download the code for the book applications, the starting code and test data for the exercises in the book, and sample chapters from the Murach web site.

Note: The current edition of this book is Murach's Java Servlets and JSP, 3rd Edition.
This second edition starts by showing how to install and use Tomcat as a web server and NetBeans as an IDE. Then, it teaches how and when to use JavaServer Pages and Java servlets to build well-structured web applications that implement the MVC pattern. Next, it shows how to use sessions, cookies, JavaBeans, Expression Language (EL), the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), and custom tags. Then, it shows how to use JDBC and connection pooling to work with a MySQL database. Finally, it shows how to use JavaMail, SSL/TLS, authentication, listeners, and filters. These are the skills that you need to build professional Java web applications. A great read for any Java developer.
