4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Ecommerce book Jan 4 2010
By fzshah76
Format:Paperback
Gave it 4 stars, only because of "Link Factory" what it does does it generates absolute links, I am not saying its wrong but it made things so confusing for me, may be its only me.
Bottom line you want to build full fledged e commerce site in Asp.Net/C# get this book or the older version or both.
I am using both versions A: because I don't like "Link Factory", B: because I like the full text search implemented in latest version of book + the attributes chapter(6). Over all a great book on e commerce coding and structure.
I hope the authors writes new book(Asp.Net 4.0) on e commerce, I will definitely buy it with my eyes closed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great ASP.NET 3.5 Book April 23 2009
By F. Stepanski - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Among the many ASP.NET books out now, very few actually go through and help readers how to create large-scale web applications. There are plenty of reference books available explaining how to use the many ASP.NET controls and c# langauge techniques showing you snippets of code but thats about it. In the job market today, people need to understand how to put together (from start to finish) a usable web application that can be used in the "real-world".

This book (as its previous ASP.NET 2.0 version) explains to its readers how to create from scratch a web application using techniques that you would see in a real-world application.

Of course it is a limited database, but it is something that you can build upon and use many of the techniques in other similar web applications.

The book first starts in explaining the database structure (The Balloon Shop) and hoow 3-tier architecture works in a web application today. The presentaion tier, the business tier and the data tier. All these "tiers" are just objects that you create in ASP.NET and C#. The presentation tier would be your web forms (controls and such), your business tier would be all the code (defined in classes) that will interact with the presentation tier and the data tier will be your database and any remaining functions. This is the real web applications work and the author explains it very well.

VS 2008 and SQL Server 2008 Express is used so you dont have to spend any money on other tools (free from Microsoft) and the author goes through all the database tables while explaing database basics such as tables, keys, SQL statements and stored procedures. A very nice database intro.

The author then goes into detail explaining all the classes (explaining how to create classes and why they are useful) that will be used in the application.

Other real-world issues in developing web applications are discussed like performance, error handling, error pages, administrations issues, interacting with 3rd party components, etc.

After you read this book, you should be well versed in developing a pretty sophisticated ASP.NET 3.5 web application.

I highly recommend this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Error prone with no website for errata or comments that get any attension Oct 31 2009
By Mel Pama - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
First, the book is a great book as far as showing you how to do website design. Each chapter builds on the rest of the book.
However, there have been problems with the url-rewrite section. Ever since I added that to my sample site it has stopped working properly. My *.css file could not be found, picture urls did not work and more recently my full text search.asp also does not work on pages other than page 1 of a category site. It took me over a month of on again off again trying to get it to work for me to find out about how to fix this problem by adding another url rewrite to my web config file. The authors just seem to skip this part of the code. It is not in their code either so I start to wonder if they ever tried their code before being finished with the book.
It has been impossible to contact them about this problem and on Christians web site their are no errata available to view or able to be published. The site on [...] is completely useless and I have never received a response from it or the authors about my questions. This attitude that they have is beyond me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good book, but way TOO MANY ERRORS. Jan 24 2011
By TheITMan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a good book if you need to learn how to create a "poor mans Amazon" website. The book actually isn't bad, but you'll need to have some expierence with programming because it is not a beginning book, even though the title states that it is. It's not that the material in the book is hard, its actually really easy. However, the book is LOADED with errors. I'm on chapter 12 so far and already have over 100 errors written down that I had to correct to get things working correctly.

I found many errors where classes in the style sheet were left out. You have some elements reference CSS classes that he doesn't even tell you how to create, so you have to guess what the content of that class should be in order to get your website to match the images in the book. There are several errors in the SQL code. The SQL code is all over the place, in the tables he uses NVARCHAR for the data type but in some of the stored procedures he uses VARCHAR. Some places he sets the max length of database columns to 1000 and in another spot he uses MAX on the same column.

There are several places where code that has no use at all is in the functions, i.e. There are several spots where variables are declared but never even used in the program.

I'm still giving it three stars because I am learning a lot of new things from the book, but I'm just thankful that I have 13 years of programming expierence to fall back on, because I'm fixing error after error.

This book is basically, a copy and paste version of his PHP book. In a lot of places you can put the books next to each other and they are word for word the same, even the same grammar errors in the exact same spot.

The only thing I ask is that next time he actually review and test the code before pasting it into the book, and have someone edit the book for general errors.
