Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
For professional Web developers working with Microsoft's Internet Information Server, Active Server Pages (ASP) is the technology that makes sophisticated sites possible. Active Server Pages 2.0: Unleashed is aimed at this audience as a productive tool for making use of the many benefits ASP offers--coverage includes building custom components, scriptlets, working with transactions, DNA, CDO and ADO.

This updated edition illustrates how to make the most of ASP 2.0 through a solutions-based approach that uses concise "how-to" examples coupled with code on a companion CD-ROM. The book includes three complete sample applications: an online store, an online job site and a discussion forum site. The complete code for each application is included on the CD and dedicated chapters walk the reader through how it works. The book also includes an ASP FAQ section as well as ASP, VBScript and SQL language references.

The reader should have a solid understanding of Web server and HTML basics for this title; it's geared toward advanced Web site development. However, for Microsoft- based Web programmers this is a must-have text. --Stephen W. Plain

Topics covered: Standard ASP objects, database access, distributed applications and integration with Microsoft Transaction Server plus a section on ASP performance tweaking.

Product Description

Active Server Pages 2.0 Unleashed has been completely revised to answer the needs of the intermediate/advanced ASP 2.0 user. The book has been refocused to provide detailed coverage of the core concepts within ASP as well as more advanced topic coverage. Topic coverage will include in depth coverage of the ASP objects as well as topics such as building custom components, scriptlets, working with transactions, DNA, CDO, ADO, and more. Each chapter stands on its own so that you can focus on the topics you are currently interested in. To help you get the most out of each chapter, examples will be presented that contain functionality used in real-world Web applications. This will allow you to port the code to your own applications quickly and easily.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent but has a few flaws, 28 Sep 2001
By A Customer
As a total newcomer to ASP I found this book was excellent at explaining the technologies and workings of the language. I thought though that a few of the paragraphs were in the wrong order as it should be important to grasp the basics before learning how these are applied. Also it would have been nice to see the VBScript form validator done in ASP. Other than this, the book offers an excellent explanation and is very useful for checking syntax once you start to do your own thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book that goes beyond the basics., 24 May 2000
By A Customer
After I grasped the basics of asp I bought this book, it has an excellent reference section and covers a lot of things I haven't seen elsewhere. I defy anyone not to find this book useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well written with excellent explanations., 30 Mar 2000
By A Customer
I bought this book at the same time as a wrox asp book, to start with I didnt really use it much. I started using it as I couldnt find the answers I was looking for in the other books I was using. Now I have mastered the basics of asp I use it all the time, it has an excellent reference section at the back which contains some things which are not covered in some of the wrox books, like format number and field.append, its propably worth it just for the reference section alone. When the book explains things it gets strainght to the point with no waffle. The examples are specfic to the explanations and they dont confuse things by adding other code. One of the best asp books I have.
