by Subrahmanyam Allamaraju, et al
You've heard of business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce, but what about B2B2C, C2B2C, or m-commerce? Professional Java E-Commerce covers the current spectrum of e-commerce options for corporate managers and developers alike. "The aim of this book is to show how the Java platform and Java technologies can be leveraged to build solutions that will address the diversity of interactions" that fall within this category. The best reason to buy this book is probably its wide-ranging sample code for case studies for a variety of e-commerce Web applications, including an e-store, a B2B solution using XML, and even a portal application.

XML, XSLT, Java, and JSP: A Case Study in Developing a Web Application
by Westy Rockwell
XML, XSLT, Java and JSP is a practical, hands-on case study on building Web applications based on XML and Java technologies--and is unique in that it teaches the technologies by using them to build a Web chat project. The project is explained in great detail, after you learn how to get and install the necessary tools to be able to customize this project and build other Web applications. The tools used are the extremely popular open-source tools from the Apache Software Foundation, namely Jakarta Tomcat, Apache Xerces, and Apache Xalan. Of particular interest to readers will be the use of XML to express the architecture and design of the application itself, and not only the data content, as is the usual case with "XML-based" applications. --From the publisher
