Learn how to build impressive ASP.NET 2.0 Websites in both C# and VB.NET from scratch using freely available software.
Using a practical step-by-step approach, the authors introduce the ASP.NET framework, teach you about database design, and walk you through obtaining, installing and configuring all the freely available software you need to use ASP.NET 2.0. They then show you how to build several real world Web-based applications that you can put to use instantly in your projects.
Readers will learn how-to:
Build an ecommerce store that supports multiple products
Intergrate PayPal™ credti card processing into an online store
Develop a fully functional Corporate Intranet with a dynamic navigation menu
Create an email newsletter system using ASP.NET 2.0
Build Web Forms using web controls, validation controls and rich controls
Speed up applications by caching pages and the data with them, to dramatically increase performance
Handle unforseen errors gracefully using a wide array of error handling techniques
Secure applications using form authentication
Use code-behind to streamline code.
As an added bonus, this book doesn't force you to choose an ASP.NET language in advance - all code examples are presented in both C# (pronounced see-sharp) and VB.NET. You can choose which one you want to use, and follow-it throughout the book. Best of all, this book doesn't assume any prior ASP.NET knowledge!
