Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
If Microsoft Internet Information Server is your Web server, Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP) is one of your most powerful tools. ASP enables you to develop and deploy highly interactive Web sites quite efficiently. Sams Teach Yourself Active Server Pages 2.0 in 21 Days can help you become an ASP expert.

As its title implies, the book presents a three-week tutorial comprising daily lessons. A chart inside the front cover outlines the learning schedule. Week one begins with overview chapters about ASP but progresses quickly through using data entry forms, working with scriptlets and working with HTTP transactions. The important Request object is covered by the sixth day and you work with cookies on the seventh.

The second week continues the pace with a focus on Web databases and ActiveX Database Objects--a key Microsoft object model used throughout their products. Along the way, you'll build a database application and work with SQL. This week also covers how to use cookies for inter- session information management. The final week of study covers advanced topics such as programming with Visual Basic and ActiveX, security, custom components and Win32 API access.

While this book teaches about ASP, it also illustrates how to use the technology effectively. This title helps you utilise the powerful development technologies of IIS to create your own professional-quality Web sites. --Stephen W. Plain

3.0 out of 5 stars The book is more useful for who already familier with VB, 20 Aug 1999
By A Customer
If you are a VB programmer and want to learn ASP from the beginning, this book will be more useful. In some places, author give some wonderful technics. But code is not so efficient. It may induce you to develop your own asp application. Not bad

2.0 out of 5 stars Avoid this disappointing book, 17 Jul 1999
By A Customer
If you are an ASP beginner, "Teach Yourself ASP in 24 Hours" may be a better start.

This book is poorly written. There is some useful code, but the author does a poor job at explaining what the code does. After reading the book you are bound to ask yourself, "What on earth did I just learn?" The answer: nothing. You will most likely need another book to start all over again.

2.0 out of 5 stars The author fails to explain the codes clearly., 9 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This book is not completely for the beginners. First couple days are still reasonable to understand; however, on the fifth, sixth, and seventh days, it is getting really difficult to understand what the author is trying to do. He doesn't give clear explantion on the codes. This book is not suitable for the tittle itself.
