Beginning ASP.NET 3.5 in C# and VB
Beginning ASP.NET 3.5 is an all new book written from scratch for ASP.NET 3.5 (part of the Visual Studio 2008 release previously known as "Orcas") that emphasizes the topics and techniques "Beginning" level readers need to know most. It is written by one author, who is closely in touch with the beginner ASP.NET developer. This edition
includes both C# and VB code for the ASP.NET examples in print and for download so readers with experience in either (or neither) can use the same book.
Beginning ASP.NET 3.5 helps readers learn to build dynamic database driven web sites using ASP.NET 3.5. Starting from scratch, the reader will progressively learn how to design and create web sites with interactive elements. After reading this book, the reader should be able to build a database driven web site on her own, using best practices and current standards.
The book follows the well-known Wrox Beginning approach where theory and demos are intermixed with exercises. Substantial pieces of theory are followed by an exercise that makes use of the things the reader just learned. The 3.5 version of this book is written from scratch with an emphasis on the beginner developer and the order in which they need to learn and work. Steps that are required to set up the development and web server environment are done carefully in sequence to make sure the reader gets off to a good start.
Some of the topics covered in this book include:
* Getting started with ASP.NET 3.5
* Creating Your First Web Site in Visual Web Developer (VWD) 3.5
