Beginning Active Server Pages 2.0 Book

ASP (Active Server Pages) empowers Internet/Intranet developers to make their websites dynamic and/or database-driven without having to worry about browser compatibility. Used in conjunction with HTML and a scripting language (VBScript, JavaScript/JScript/ECMAScript) ASP even allows you to create web-based applications. Beginning Active Server Pages 2.0 educates the reader in the hows and whys of ASP. Aimed at the novice and intermediate user-either as a learning or reference resource-- the book clearly explains the basic precepts of ASP and illustrates them to a further level of detail with examples and useful graphics. The broad range of topics covered include Client- and Server-side scripting, VBScript, control constructs, objects, properties, methods and events (with extra detail given for the Request and Response objects), application and session objects and variables, and debugging your ASP code (a vital chapter!). Appendices provide additional reinforcement in areas like the VBScript language, the Object model and the scripting object, methods and properties. Beginning Active Server Pages 2.0 is a useful introduction for web developers anxious to 'wet their toes' in database-driven, dynamic web sites. While not providing a fully comprehensive resource, this book provides an essential introduction and development all will appreciate--Rebecca LoadesRead More
