An expert team of authors uses their extensive ASP.NET programming experience to give you hands-on instruction in the best way to create Web sites with ASP.NET. This completely updated edition features new examples, and all code is written and tested for ASP.NET version 1.1.

Basic programming principles for Visual Basic. NET, such as variables, controls structures, and procedural programming
Techniques for applying these principles as you develop ASP.NET pages
The minimum amount of object-oriented programming necessary to work successfully and efficiently with ASP.NET
Key differences between ASP.NET 1.0 and 1.1, how to use the examples in this book with either version, and how to move from 1.0 to 1.1
Build ASP.NET sites faster using Microsoft's new, free WebMatrix tool
Techniques for extending your ASP.NET sites to incorporate related tools and technologies, such as using ADO.NET for data source access

1.0 out of 5 stars Does NOT use VB.NET 2003, Jun 23 2004

By	Scott Busse (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am amazed that Wrox (AKA Wiley Publishing) would title a book in such a deceptive manner.

Purchased the book and first thing I did was read "What you need to use this book?" - it clearly states "You do not need Visual Studio.NET in order to use this book." Instead - they expect you to download something called a Web Matrix...

Sure - it uses the .NET framework 1.1 but to me, and I am sure the vast majority of developers, if one sees "with VB.NET 2003" they are not expecting to be taught how to write code in Notepad...

Wrox - You have disappointed me

4.0 out of 5 stars Complain Complain Complain, Jun 23 2004

By	Diane M. Napolitano (Bay Shore, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I almost didn't buy this book, because the reviews I had read of it here on Amazon were absolutely hideous. But, the price was right and it covers the subject(s) I need to know, and I had been satisfied with Wiley books before (see "Big Java"). Anyway, I'm on Chapter 5, and I would just like to state that, yes, there are mistakes, typos, you name it. Do they degrade the book's quality? Not in the slighest. This is already one of the best computer book purchases I have ever made. The only complaint I have about it is that it's a little dry--yes I know it's a Computer Science book, but still. But as far as the editing goes, it's not that bad. It's fairly easy to understand what they're saying, and in the few places there's a line that doesn't belong there, you can check on it, cross it out, move on with your life. This book is great, and despite what I have also read here, knows its target audience well--and its audience is old-school static HTML developers. The examples are great, the explinations thorough (sometimes too thorough). This is a great, inexpensive book for someone looking to learn both ASP.NET and VB.NET at the same time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not for Visual studio users, April 28 2004

By	H. Fas "compusexual" (NJ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

You'll find it extremely difficult to apply the examples in visual studio.net.
Some of the databases are missing from the downloaded code such as WroxDBAuth.mdb mentioned in chapter 17.
Many errors for example: the access database used in chapter 17 is missing the "SiteAdminLevel" field in the players table (mentioned in the example) and misnamed in the SQL version ("AdminLevel"). As a beginner such errors could take me hours to figure out, never mind the frustration associated with it. So why the four stars? You might ask? Because of the knowledge I gained. Regardless of the errors, this book is very valuable especially if you are intending to use Web matrix.

There are more errors in this book than I've ever seen in any other. Typos, inconsistencies... The code seems to be fine, but it's VERY distracting when you're reading to notice... Read more
