As you know, ASP.NET is Microsoft's premier technology for creating server-side
web applications. ASP.NET 1.0 was a revolution in the web programming world.
It was so wildly popular that it was licensed on thousands of commercial web
servers while it was still a beta product.
ASP.NET 2.0 is the next major milestone in web development. ASP.NET 2.0 keeps the same technical underpinning as ASP.NET 1.x, but adds layers and layers of higher-level features. These features include a streamlined data binding model, an out-of-the-box security framework, tools for building dynamic web portals, and a slew of powerful new web controls.
In this book, you'll learn how ASP.NET 2.0 really works. You won't be bored with a rehash of the C# language—instead, you’ll get the hard-won practical advice that you need to build sophisticated, scalable websites. You’ll also dig into advanced topics that other ASP.NET books leave out, like custom control creation, image handling, and encryption. New features are clearly identified, so if you’ve programmed with a previous version of ASP.NET you'll sail through the basics and get right to the most important changes and enhancements.
"Pro ASP.Net 2.0 in C# 2005 by Matthew MacDonald and Mario Szpuszta is
the book for the new version ...
These guys don't skimp or skim.
"I have a new go-to reference that will sit on my shelf next to where I work.
You know what I mean. There is always that one book that you reach for when
you run across a thorny problem. One that you go for even before the internet,
just because you know where to go to find the info you need.
It is chapters like the integration of JavaScript and ASP.NET 2.0,
that I know I will use again and again. Oh yeah!"
