From the Author
Be sure to read the subtitle of the book!Authors don't always get a chance to pick the title of their books, and this is one we might have wished for a more direct title for.
The subtitle for the book (on the cover) is: The Professional's Guide to Developing Dynamic, Interactive Web Sites with Microsoft ActiveX
What does this mean? Our goal with this book was not to showcase any one technology, but rather to show you how to write real Web pages using an arsenal of techniques including ASP, DHTML, client-side scripting, and more.
We had no desire to rehash the ASP documentation. Instead, we want to show you how to bring together a variety of technologies, centered on ASP, to produce the results you want. The chapters on scripting apply to client-side and ASP scripting. The chapters that are ASP-specific cover both ASP fundamentals, database access, built-in components, and the powerful MPS components. In addition, the case study chapter converts an ordinary Web site into an Active site using ASP, client-side scripting, and MPS.
If you are looking for a rehash of the ASP documentation, look somewhere else. If, on the other hand, you want to see how real Web programmers use all the tools available to create exciting Web content, you'll get a lot of use from this book.
