ASP.NET is the latest incarnation of Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) - a powerful server-based technology, designed to create dynamic and interactive HTML pages for your Web site, or corporate intranet. ASP.NET also constitutes a core element in Microsoft's .NET vision, providing web-based access to an immensely powerful new development environment, .NET; in this respect alone, it's a great leap ahead of all previous versions of ASP.

This book will provide you with a step-by-step introduction to ASP.NET using C#, with plenty of worked examples that will help you to gain a deep understanding of what ASP.NET is all about, and how you can harness it to build powerful web applications.

Wrox has published two editions of Beginning ASP.NET, one presenting code samples in C#, the other in VB.NET, with sample downloads available in both languages.

This book covers:

Creating basic ASP.NET pages
Learning the basics of C#
Understanding the concepts of Object Oriented Programming
Working with Data and XML
The ASP.NET Server Controls
Creating User Controls and Components
Exploring the world of Web Services
Configuring your ASP.NET Applications
The future of VoiceXML technologies, including VoiceXML 2.0
