A Very Helpful Book - 2003-04-03
Reviewer Rating:
I found this book very helpful as it explains the basics in a very clear, easy to understand language and has lots of examples. It's a high quality interactive manual: first the concepts are described, then I was presented with exercises, which is very good as most of us learn through practice, experince. The answers and clarifications which are given after the exercises unit helped me monitor my understanding and in the end I had the complete application and a great feeling of achievement.

Fantastic, fulfills a large void in Oracle Documentation - 2004-02-13
Reviewer Rating:
Written much like the math textbooks of your youth (complete with exercises at the end of each section), Oracle Web Application Programming for Pl/SQL Developers is a godsend for those of us who knew you could write web apps using PL/SQL, but lacked the actual syntax to do so. Book can be used as either a reference or a tutorial guide, given that it is both comprehensive and chock full of sample code. Companion website is handy so you can copy and paste. Bottom line, if you want your browser to talk to your database and make it do neat tricks, this book will serve you well.
