Publisher's Synopsis
Learn how to create an entire suite of enterprise applications with ASP.NET and C#
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 step by step through the application–– from building the object model to implementing security to enhancing the ASP.NET Web application for optimal performance.
Filled with tips, tricks, and workarounds that stem from their own real–world experiences, 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
∗ Create, publish, and use powerful XML Web Services
∗ Implement powerful user authentication and security features to enhance your applications
∗ Integrate important e–commerce features such as shipping calculations, address verification, and e–mail notification
∗ Optimize an ASP.NET application using caching and performance profiling
The companion Web site contains the complete source code from the book as well as links to other .NET resources and ASP.NET sites on the Web.
