Features: Distributed web applications are now the most common and worthwhile type of application to invest in. The best way to build a web application is to make it a three-tier application, skillfully distinguishing its three components: user interface, computational logic, and data storage. The combination of Java and XML provides the best means to build a three-tier application. Based on this idea, the authors of this book target experienced programmers and computer science students, introducing a wealth of technologies related to Java, XML, JSP, and XSLT through the development of multiple practical applications. At the same time, using metaprogramming—a way of writing programs that customize, guide, and modify other programs—builds a new relationship between users, programmers, and programs. The composite technologies discussed in this book can be applied individually or combined in different ways for various system types. Readers are sure to benefit greatly.
