Product Description
Learn how to create the basic, dynamic, and advanced ASP.NET pages in C#

Packed with tips, tricks, and workarounds, this book covers every aspect of developing a Web application for the enterprise using ASP.NET and C#. Written by Microsoft insiders, it shows readers how to create the basic, dynamic, and advanced ASP.NET pages in Microsoft′s new C# programming language, and explains how to interact with the database using ADO.NET.

The authors review how to transport and display data on the Internet or an Intranet using XML, objects, and Web services. They also explain how to implement security with authentication, integrate important e–commerce issues, and optimize the ASP.NET Web application for optimal performance.

Companion Web site features complete source code samples for the applications developed and explained in the book.

Microsoft Technologies
.NET Platform: The next big overhaul to Microsoft′s technologies that will bring enterprise distributed computing to the next level by fully integrating the Internet into the development platform. This will allow interaction between any machine, on any platform, and on any device.

Visual Basic.NET: The update to this popular visual programming language will offer greater Web functionality, more sophisticated object–oriented language features, links to Microsoft′s new common runtime, and a new interface.

ASP.NET: A programming framework (formerly known as Active Server Pages) for building powerful Web–based enterprise applications; can be programmed using VB.NET or C#.

C#: Microsoft′s new truly object–oriented programming language that builds on the strengths of C++ and the ease of Visual Basic; promises to give Sun′s Java a run for its money.

From the Back Cover
Learn how to create an entire suite of enterprise applications with ASP.NET and C#

ASP.NET is a vast improvement over Microsoft’s popular Web technology, Active Server Pages (ASP). And, when combined with C#, Microsoft’s new and powerful programming language, ASP.NET provides developers with a robust framework for enterprise–level applications. In this book, Microsoft insiders Hank Meyne and Scott Davis cover every aspect of how to develop an ASP.NET application for the enterprise using C# as the programming language. After a brief overview of the .NET Framework, they walk you step by step through the application–– from building the object model to implementing security to enhancing the ASP.NET Web application for optimal performance.

Filled with tips, tricks, and workarounds that stem from their own real–world experiences, this book covers how to:

  • Utilize server controls including postback, data binding, RadioButton, and CompareValidator
  • Interact with the database using ADO.NET
  • Develop more advanced ASP.NET pages using cookies and form collections
  • Create, publish, and use powerful XML Web Services
  • Implement powerful user authentication and security features to enhance your applications
  • Integrate important e–commerce features such as shipping calculations, address verification, and e–mail notification
  • Optimize an ASP.NET application using caching and performance profiling

The companion Web site contains the complete source code from the book as well as links to other .NET resources and ASP.NET sites on the Web.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Life Tutorial, 14 Nov 2003
I really like this book. No bollocks about the background just a really logical development of a fully functioning web application. If you want a rehash of help files don't buy this. If you want something practical and useful buy this.
Frasers Real World ASP.NET Building a content management system is also very good in a similar practical way

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful but flawed, 23 May 2005
By A Customer
I've been reading this book for a while now, from start to finish as if it was a course. It contains a lot of useful information and source code and covers a lot of subjects, but for me, the authors aren't very good at teaching. It has a noticeable number of typo's, even in the example code, which I think is poor and my copy wasn't updated for Visual Studio 2003, which affects how the source code in the book compares with your code behind classes. If you don't already, the book will have you typing all your ASP code rather than using the toolbox, which I'm very pleased about. There is also a brilliant chapter that puts everything together and builds a site from scratch. In summary, it hasn't been an easy book to learn with, but I'll be keeping it and will refer to it frequently in the months ahead.

4.0 out of 5 stars Contains a lot of good stuff, 22 Sep 2004
By Alistair Duncan "AlistairD" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I think this book is a pretty good introduction to using C# on the web. However it doesn't teach you C# from the ground up so you will need to buy a book on plain C# before you dive into this one.

It covers all the common uses of C# on the web and provides plenty of example code.

Having said that, I found that it did not always explain concepts to my satisfaction and seemed to assume knowledge which I didn't have. That could be my personal failing though.

To round up; this is a good book but I still rate the guides published by SAMS much higher.
