    April 21, 2006: Programming ASP.NET is now on it?s 3rd edition?updated for the new 2.0 release of the .NET framework. I have always been a fan of the previous editions of this book, but this version is by far the best yet. In some of the previous editions of this book, code examples were provided in both C# and VB.NET. That was always a point of dissatisfaction with me?first of all, I don?t think anyone should be programming in VB.NET, and second of all, by putting in the same example twice, it left twice as less room for other material. This has all been resolved with this version. The authors have wisely opted to focus on C# with all their code examples. By focusing on just one language, this book feels more focused. One thing I loved about the previous editions was how virtually every control was discussed, with lots of examples, and lots of documentation. This trend continues in this book, but has been massively updated to account for all the new ASP.NET controls. All in all, I was very pleased with this book. The things I didn?t like from previous editions have been resolved, and the stuff I have always loved has remained. This is the best edition of Programming ASP.NET yet. The authors have deftly created a book that is part reference, part tutorial. This book is the best ASP.NET book available. Highly recommended.

    March 16, 2006: Are you a programmer or web developer who wants to build web applications using Microsoft's powerful new ASP.NET 2.0 platform? Well, you're in luck! Authors Jesse Liberty and Dan Hurwitz, have done an outstanding job of writing a 3rd edition of a book that will teach you all you need to know to build professional quality, interactive, robust data-driven web applications. Liberty and Dan Hurwitz, begin with an introduction to ASP.NET and the .NET platform. Then, they explore the Visual Studio 2005 Integrated Development Environment and show you how you can use it most efficiently to create ASP.NET applications. The authors continue by providing complete coverage of ASP.NET Server Controls. In addition, the authors next go beyond the controls to show you how to use code-behind effectively, and how to manage state in the otherwise stateless Web and describe the lifecycle of a Web page in detail and, finally show you how to take advantage of advanced directives. They also examine Tracing, Debugging, and Error Handling in ASP.NET. Then, the authors look at validation. They continue by looking at Web Data Access, and explore the new controls in ASP.NET 2.0 that make interacting with data sources such as databases and XML files far easier than ever before. In addition, the authors next cover ADO.NET. They also describe in detail how to implement forms-based security to constrain user access to your web site over the Internet. Then, the authors describe features that help you build professional-quality Web applications. They continue by showing you how to allow your users to tailor the look and feel of your site to their own requirements and how to store that information so when the user returns, the site remembers the user's preferences and state. In addition, the authors cover the powerful, yet easy to use, technology that allows you to extend ASP.NET to create controls customized for your specific problem domain. They also show you how to create web services that allow other applications to interact with your application programatically. Then, the authors show you how to create client applications that present data retrieved from Web services. They continue by focusing on issues related to building fast, scalable applications. In addition, the authors next cover application logic and configuration. Finally, they focus on deployment. The good thing about this excellent book is that it helps you get the job done. Needless to say, this book simplifies the configuration and deployment of applications.
