I Want To Learn To Develop Web Applications In Java. Where Do I Start?

I have an extensive knowledge of PHP and MySQL, and I have developed several web applications using these technologies.
Now I want to migrate to Java – based web development.
I also have an extensive knowledge of Object Oriented Programming paradigm.

    Java is a little different from PHP – you have more options. Check out one of the many online tutorials, but you could start with the Sun tutorials. Assuming you have never used Java, consult J2SE (Java 2 Standard Edition). Ignore the stuff on Swing if you’re not interested in creating desktop applications/applets:http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/
    The most basic web application consists of JSPs. This will be pretty similar to your PHP stuff. For more information, consult the J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition) tutorials:http://java.sun.com/javaee/reference/tut…
    Then you add in servlets and start to consider MVC architectures. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model-view-…
    Ultimately, if you like the J2EE concepts, consider researching the J2EE blueprints and learn about EJBs.http://java.sun.com/reference/blueprints…
    Personally, I would recommend a look at OSGi as well. OSGi is a specification for ‘modular Java’ and gives you yet more options when considering your architecture, but is a more advanced Java topic. I’ll be doing a few OSGi tutorials on my blog over the next few weeks, including how to build web applications using OSGi technology on the server using HTML and Flex:http://www.perplentropy.com/
