I agree that a beginning to end book about building a typical
small/medium VW app in NB is sorely needed. There are a good number of
individual component demos online, but none really do a good job of
showing the entire picture of a typical functioning site. There is a
good book for the .Net side that does this very thing, although the
author's implementation of best practices is a bit sketchy at times.
The book is "ASP.NET 2.0 Website Programming, Problem - Design -
Solution" by Marco Bellinaso. Maybe one of these brilliant Sun
programmers or evangelists will sit down and crank one of these out to
help with the learning curve for many beginning Web programmers.
Kudos,
