What is this book about? ASP.NET 1.0 is the final release of Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP). It is a powerful server-based technology designed to create dynamic, interactive, HTML pages for web sites and corporate intranets. ASP.NET is a core element of Microsoft's exciting .NET vision, building on the strengths of the .NET Framework to provide many new features not seen in previous versions of ASP. This book, entirely revised and updated for the final release, will provide you with a step-by-step introduction to ASP.NET using VB.NET, with plenty of worked examples to help you to gain a deep understanding of what ASP.NET is all about, and how you can harness it to build powerful web applications. What does this book cover? In this book, you will learn how to Create basic ASP.NET pages with VB .NET Understand the concepts of Object Oriented Programming Work with data and XML Debug and handling errors in your code Use ASP.NET Server Controls Create user controls and components Explore the world of Web services Optimize performance Secure your application Who is this book for? This book is aimed at relatively inexperienced web builders who are looking to enrich their sites with dynamically-generated content, and want to learn how to start building web applications using ASP.NET. Developers who have a little experience with previous versions of ASP (and are looking to move over to ASP.NET), may also find this book helpful in getting a simple grasp on what ASP.NET is, what it does, and how it can be used. Experience of basic HTML is required, but previous experience of ASP or VBScript is not essential. We'll be teaching the basics of VB .NET in this book, so prior experience of the language is not required.

This book teaches everything you need for developing web applications with ASP.NET. Along the way, you'll learn how to use server controls, validation controls, site navigation, state management, and ADO.NET database programming techniques including datasets, caching, binding, and the DataList and DataGrid controls. You'll also learn how to secure your ASP.NET pages, how to create and use XML web services, how to create and use custom server controls and user controls, how to incorporate Crystal Reports into your web applications, and how to deploy a web application. Although all of the examples use VB.NET as the programming language, ASP.NET works the same no matter what language you use.
