Product Description

Product Description

Sams Teach Yourself Active Server Pages in 24 Hours is a step-by-step tutorial that teaches you how to create dynamic, fully functioning Web applications using Active Server Pages. Detailed coverage is provided for both Microsoft Personal Web Server and Microsoft Internet Information Server. Shows how to make sure your Web server is up and running correctly as well as how to build basic ASP applications. In addition to coverage of the basics of data access, you'll learn to send data, retrieve information, manage user sessions, use components, and work with files. Advanced topics include debugging ASP applications, building components, designing effective sites, adding security, and tuning ASP applications.



From the Author
A concise guide for beginners - a reference title for pro's
I am a self-taught programmer who learned various programming languages by reading books, magazines and - most importantly - source code from others (also referred to as "learning by stealing"). With this tactics, I have earned the MCSE, MCSD, MCP-IT and CNA titles so far; not too bad for reading only. My support for the online ASP community has earned me the Most Valuable Professional (MVP) title for ASP, which I'm very proud of.

This book serves two purposes - to get beginners started with examples they can use in real life now, as well as serving the purpose of the #1 reference for the then advanced programmer. My co-author and I have put a heavy emphasis on readability, step-by-steps and background information you don't get anywhere else - we have put all our knowledge (I'm working on IIS since its 1.0 beta version) into this book.

You are learning about the basics, the tricks of the trade, database access for dynamic web pages, a shot of XML in the server-side environment, security guidelines for today's web servers, shopping solutions and various ways on how to extend the reach of ASP. Explore the possibilities step-by-step and come back later to re-use the code in your real-life applications.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good way of starting asp from scratch, 29 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This is an easy to read book, with carefully explained examples. It was the perfect book for me, since I appraoched ASP with no previous experiece. The examples covered all relate to common uses of ASP - database access, creating a 'shoping cart', tracking user sessions etc. I used this book to get me going, and ASP In A Nutshell once I was more at home with ASP.

The one possible drawback is that ASP in 24 hours charges through the basics of VB script - some sort more extensive reference of components and operators would have been helpful, esspecially for those of you like me with no Visual Basic experience.

1.0 out of 5 stars SAMS Teach Yourself ASP, 16 Jul 2004
By Mr. Graham C. John "Green Sites" (Great Britain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In spite of the many positive reviews this book has received I would agree with those reviewers who said the book is not for beginners. The Introduction to Hour 12 is a case in point, promising to be "a breather after the difficult hour" on sending e-mail. In fact it turns out to be turgid in the extreme and full of irritating, hip computerese. A MUCH better introduction in my opinion in the same series is 'Teach Yourself Active Server Pages 3.0 in 21 days' where the emphasis is on the code and not self-congratulatory, "look, aren't I clever" use of technical language. This book's a raspberry. .... sorry!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 3 Jul 2003
By A Customer
This is an excellent book. 3 years ago I used this to get into the ASP buisness and I refer to it even now. Clear cut examples in a concise yet explanatory style and at a good price (for copmputer books). I am training my someone in ASP and this is the book I got for them. Its one of those books you would recommend to a person and stump up the money up fornt because you know they will find it valuable.
