| Hello
|

librairies

Re: Can anybody make a recommendation between Struts in Action and Struts Kick Start

[Puneet Agarwal <pu...@rediffmail.com>]

Even I was into the same dilemma which one to buy...
I then read a lot of reviews and decided that I want Struts in Action first,
and I have ordered it from Amazon.com, am waiting for the book now a
days..it will take almost 15 days for me to receive the book.

I chose this one only because somewhere I read that this book consolidates
the general problems put-up in this forum.

Puneet
