NET, Jesse Liberty and Dan Hurwitz teach you everything you need to know to write web applications and web service. The book focuses on ASP. NET development using both C# and Visual Basic NET, and coding examples are presented in both languages. Programming ASP. NET includes a detailed tutorial on Web Forms, which, in conjunction with Visual Studio NET, allow you to apply Rapid Application Development techniques (including drag-and-drop control placement) to web development. Programming ASP. NET includes extensive coverage of each type of server control, including web server controls, HTML server controls, and custom controls.
