Summary: Best Oracle Web Development Reference
Comment: Anyone who is serious about developing an Oracle web application needs to buy this book. This is by far the BEST book I have seen for the application developer. This is not the typical administration oriented book or just a detailed description of Oracle documentation. They cover just about EVERYTHING, from hardware to site design to OAS install, configuration and tuning to WebDB to HTML, JavaScript, listeners (not just Oracle's), XML, Designer Generation (i.e., WSG), Security, Developer (particularly reports deployed on the Web), Java and Perl Cartridges (even some material on Fujitsu's COBOL cartridge), Oracle Internet Commerce Server, and many utilities to assist web development such as Paint Shop Pro, TOAD, WS_FTP, HTML editors, debugging code and a superb section on web sites for developers. And even more.
Have I got you salivating yet? In the two hours I spent perusing this book last night I found ideas and techniques for solutions to 2 or 3 problems I have been seeking for some time. The complement to this book is the TUSC group's other Oracle Press book, Oracle Application Server Web Toolkit Reference. You MIGHT need an HTML and JavaScript reference occasionally and good PL/SQL reference material. Choose O'Reilly for these, and armed with the other two books you can be the Web App BATMAN!

Summary: Great PL/SQL cartridge coverage, limited information on Java
Comment: This is a great book on OAS 4.0.7 new features with respect to PL/SQL cartridges. The author's previous book covers OWAS 3.0 so this can be considered as the second edition. I would give it a 5-star rating if the title is along the line of "Oracle OAS 4 PL/SQL Cartridge Application Development". The author gave detailed tips and techniques on writing PL/SQL stored procedures that dynamically generate HTML web pages using Oracle database, and every new feature in OAS 4.0.7 PL/SQL cartridge is covered. It also boasts excellent sections on JavaScript, WebDB, OAS installation and configuration, security, and design and development tools.
However, the same cannot be said about the coverage of Java-related features of OAS 4.0.x. There are only less than 50 pages in a 1000-page book titled "Oracle8i Web Development" that deal with Java in some detail. Maybe this book was written when OAS 4.0.8 was still under development, and the author did not cover the JWeb and JCORBA cartridges available with OAS 4.0.7, probably knowing they will be deprecated in OAS 4.0.9 and up. So don't be misled by the book's title - it has little to do with Oracle 8i! If you want to learn the Java specific features of OAS 4.0.8 (JServlet and JSP), wait for the next edition of this book.

Summary: FINALLY BOOK THAT EXPLAINS IT ALL ......
Comment: Finally this is like Complete reference if you are an Oracle DBA. If you are planning on installating or already have I would strongly recommend to purchase this book. You must have some HTML, Java, XML experience to understand examples in this book. Extremely good coverage of OAS (oracle application server) from installation to configuration. The author gave detailed tips and techniques on writing PL/SQL stored procedures that dynamically generate HTML web pages using Oracle database, and every new feature in OAS PL/SQL cartridge is covered. More installation information on WebDB server is available on OTN (Oracle technology network).
