Whats the difference between the first and second editions?
The first edition (published in 1998) only covered Java 1.0, because that’s what the majority of installed browsers at the time could handle. Now that a sufficient number of Java 2 capable machines are out there, the second edition has been updated to meet your needs (if you still want Java 1.0, don’t fret: Appendix D covers the differences). I also added a number of chapters covering Servlets, JSP, Swing, and working with Visual Tools such as GoLive and Dreamweaver. You can tell how much has been updated and added when you realize that the first edition was 221 pages and the second edition is 345 pages.
