Developing Web Applications

ASP.NET is a vast improvement over Microsoft's popular Web technology, Active Server Pages (ASP). And, when combined with C#, Microsoft's new and powerful programming language, ASP.NET provides developers with a robust framework for enterprise-level applications. In this book, Microsoft insiders Hank Meyne and Scott Davis cover every aspect of how to develop an ASP.NET application for the enterprise using C# as the programming language. After a brief overview of the .NET Framework, they walk you through the application from building the object model to implementing security to enhancing the ASP.NET Web application for optimal performance. This book covers how to: Utilize server controls including postback, data binding, RadioButton, and CompareValidator; Interact with the database using ADO.NET; Develop more advanced ASP.NET pages using cookies and form collections; Optimize an ASP.NET application using caching and performance profiling.
