JSP Tag Libraries is an extension to Java Server Pages, the java API for web development, that allows a cleaner separation of logic and presentation. This promotes genuine reusability and improves the scope and power of JSP. This title teaches you how to create usable, maintainable, and flexible tags. It teaches good practices, and the design implications of tags, that will enable you to maximise the reusability of your code. This book includes many useful code examples that illustrate the points being made. It does not concentrate in detail on using 3rd party tags, but rather aims to take you from writing script-like JSP based applications to creating genuinely object oriented web applications.
