Description:
For professional Web developers working with Microsoft Internet Information Server, Active Server Pages (ASP) is the technology that makes sophisticated sites possible. Aimed at this audience, Active Server Pages 2.0: Unleashed is a productive tool for making use of the many benefits ASP offers. Coverage includes building custom components, scriptlets, working with transactions, DNA, CDO, and ADO. This updated edition illustrates how to make the most of ASP 2.0 through a solutions-based approach that uses concise "how-to" examples coupled with code on a companion CD-ROM. The book includes three complete sample applications: an online store, an online job site, and a discussion forum site. The complete code for each application is included on the CD-ROM, and dedicated chapters walk the reader through how it works. The book also includes an ASP FAQ section, as well as ASP, VBScript, and SQL language references. You should have a solid understanding of Web server and HTML basics before you launch into this title--it's geared toward advanced Web site development. For Microsoft-based Web programmers, however, this is a must-have text. --Stephen W. Plain Topics covered: Standard ASP objects, database access, distributed applications, integration with Microsoft Transaction Server, plus a section on ASP performance tweaking.
