Professional ASP.NET
Dave Sussman, Richard G. Anderson, Alex Homer, Brian J. Francis, Rob Howard, Karli Watson · 2001
From the Publisher: If you're currently developing with ASP 2.0 or 3.0, and are considering the implications of the .NET Framework, then this book is for you. It is aimed at experienced ASP developers who are working at the leading edge, rather than the casual ASP developer or beginner. Anyone with programming experience in virtually any language can create .NET applications, thanks to its Common Language Runtime, but experience of VB or C-based syntax (C++, Java, or C#) would be beneficial in understanding this book. Author Biography: David Sussman is a full time author specializing in data access and internet technologies. When not writing he spends most of his time playing with alpha and beta technologies, playing the guitar (badly), or juggling. Alex Homer is a software developer and technical author living and working in the idyllic rural surroundings of the Derbyshire Dales in England. He started playing with Microsoft's Active Server Pages technology right from the early Betas of version 1.0 (remember Denali?) - and has watched with awe and excitement as it has evolved into probably the most comprehensive server-side Web programming environment available today. And with the advent of it gets even better. In fact, he's so excited about the whole new framework and application model that he once nearly referred to it as a paradigm. You can contact Alex at [email protected]. Rob Howard is a Program Manager on Microsoft's .NET Framework team. Within the .NET Framework team he specifically works on ASP.NET and is responsible for the Http Runtime, Error pages, Caching, Session State, and Web Services. He currently writes a column for MSDN online entitled Nothin' but ASP.NET, as well as writing the .NET Framework column for Windows 2000 magazine. You can reach Rob at: [email protected]. Karli Watson is an in-house author for Wrox. He started out with the intention of becoming a world famous nanotechnologist, so perhaps one day you might recognize his name as he receives a Nobel Prize. For now, though, Karli's computing interests include all things mobile, and upcoming technologies such as C#. He can often be found preaching about these technologies at conferences. Brian Francis is the Technical Sales Director for NCR's Web Kiosk Solutions. Brian is responsible for enlightening NCR and its customers in the technologies and tools used for Web Kiosk Applications. He is the author/co-author of numerous Wrox books including the Professional and Beginning ASP Series of books, and is now totally immersed in the .NET world. Richard Anderson is an established software developer who has been working with Microsoft technologies for longer that he can remember. Richard works for a great company in the UK called BMS who specialize in Internet payroll/hr solutions. Richard would like to say a big Hello and Thank You to: Al and Dave (not forgetting Tina!) - everybody should go and check out their very funny, yet informative website.
