Programming Active Server Pages
Programming Active Server Pages is not just a tutorial for creating dynamic Web pages, but also a guide to all the relevant tools and necessary Microsoft technology required to build state-of-the-art Web sites. Stressing a hands-on approach and featuring plenty of relevant screen shots, the authors take you through the basics of HTML and scripting languages such as VBScript, ActiveX, and Java and explain how Active Server Pages (ASPs) can be used to deliver platform-independent dynamic content. Further sections introduce Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), Personal Web Server as a development tool, and Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) basics for connecting to databases. The authors then turn to the fundamentals of working with Internet Explorer 4, as well as its version of dynamic HTML, where all tags can be manipulated programmatically. Finally, the authors look at how ASPs can be used on IIS to deliver content dynamically.

Programming the Web
Programming the Web with Visual Basic .NET is a comprehensive guide to building Web applications and services using Visual Basic .NET. It is written especially for experienced Visual Basic programmers who use Visual Studio .NET for their development work, even those who have never written a Web application before. Because the .NET Framework simply blows away the archaic tools previously available to Web programmers, the authors predict that many Visual Basic programmers who successfully avoided Web programming in the past will now bring their expertise to the Web. However, even experienced Web programmers will greatly benefit from the authors' thorough coverage of the ASP.NET namespaces and their clear coverage of the ADO.NET classes most important to Web applications that use relational databases for data storage. Developers will understand how to build and deploy top quality, professionally designed, highly usable Web applications.

Programming Web Applications
Programming Data-Driven Web Applications with ASP.NET provides readers with a solid understanding of ASP.NET and how to effectively integrate databases with their Web sites. The key to making information instantly available on the Web is integrating the Web site and the database to work as one piece. The authors teach this using ASP.NET, server-side controls, ADO+, XML, and SOAP. The authors will teach readers how to manage data by using ASP.NET forms, exposing data through ASP+ Web Services, working with BLOBs, and using cookies and other features to secure their data. The book dives into ASP.NET with a breakdown of its new features such as server side controls and event handling, Web services and session state management. It then clearly points out the advantages of ADO.NET -- interoperability, a strong-typed programming model, higher disconnected performance, and better scalability. Includes .NET overview, and ADO.NET managed providers.

Real World ASP.NET Best Practices
Real World ASP.NET Best Practices goes far beyond the documentation to teach ASP.NET development best practices based on the authors' real-world experience. The book's emphasis is on helping developers perform tasks correctly and avoid mistakes, not on teaching ASP.NET in general. ASP.NET is a wonderful new enabling technology that allows developers to create business solutions much more effectively than ever before. However, there is room for improvement. Developers often do not see the potholes and pitfalls related to this technology until they stumble. Real World ASP.NET Best Practices helps readers to avoid just such frustrations. The book's in-depth coverage includes data handling, caching, JavaScript, user and server controls, distributed programming, configuration, and deployment. Contaisn the hard won, real world experiences of veteran ASP.NET programmers. Exposes the truth behind advanced topics as XML Web servers and .NET remoting.

Sharing ASP State
Developers with ASP based applications that use session and application state management (i.e. "session variables") are stuck if you want to gradually migrate existing state using applications to ASP.NET. Even though ASP.NET provides both session and application state management, they each run in their own scope. ASP and ASP.NET apges can cohabitate in the same virtual directory, but Sessions and the Application scope in ASP.NET's ASPx pages are disctinct from ASP pages in teh same virtual directory. However there is a way through this mess, and in this article David Gerding will show it to you. In the article Sharing ASP State with ASP.NET by David Gerding (published in ASP Today), the problem is throughly discussed and then moves on the the solution - "Companion Sessions". The article talks about initializing the companion sessions, the ASP Side of the Fence, Redirect/Links from ASP Pages to .NET, Cookies and Caveats, and security loophole.
