Excellent! A pleasure to read, PRACTICAL examples!!! A+++ December 11, 2009 PolishPaul (Newark, DE) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'll keep this short - this is just a great book! I read the whole thing and I wanted more!
The practices and examples you do are... practical - you can implement them right away. When you're done the chapters, you firmly know what you're doing. Web support is great - the author himself checks the forums. Very good book!!!

If you want to learn and understand ASP.NET DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. Here is how the book is laid out: Enter some code behind, now enter the following markup, and finally here is a paragraph (or two) of what just happened. There are Wrox plugs all throughout this book. They go something like this: "...and if you need to know more (which you will trust me) please buy Professional ASP.NET 3.5, published by Wrox" -or- "To understand what just happened check out Professional ASP.NET 2.0 Ajax" etc., etc., ad nauseum. Also, the index is horrible, I'll generally forgive a poorly written tech book if it has a usable index.
Who are these people giving this dismal book such rave reviews?
The best programming book I ever had the pleasure of stepping through August 28, 2009 Victor D. Delprete (Delray Beach, FL USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
First I want to congratulate Imar on his work. It's not enough to be thorough, Imar is thoughtful and insightful. Imar thought of everything, and all the examples work right out of the book. His installation of MVS was exactly like mine, so all the screen shots were identical, and every time the book said to click on a menu option or toolbar option it was there just as he said. In other words, no hunting for functionality inside studio.
I have been programming since I was 11 years old. Taught myself basic, and before I was 20 I was writing games and utilities in 6809 assembly. Became a professional programmer writing C, C++, and VB. Then a SQL DBA for the last decade. Learned miscellaneous other languages along the way. My stack of books reaches the ceiling. But since I became a DBA in 1999 I have mostly left behind web languages, but now I'm making a website.
This book is the best computer book I ever owned, period. As I said, everything works. I had started with two other books before this one, but had a lot of trouble. By the time I finished this book I had a good understanding of C# integrated with CSS and SQL Server, and best of all I had a good working website that I could use as a template.
5 Stars

this book definetely for the beginning August 16, 2009 Murat Cabuk 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
if you know c# or vb.net and you want to learn something about ASP.Net, i can recommend. However, this book doesn't teach fishing; it just teachs eating fish. You can create website but i thing you cannot learn web application programming.
