Introducing ASP.NET Web Forms
Andrew Troelsen · Apress eBooks · 2012
Until now, all of the examples in this book have focused on console-based and desktop graphical user interfaces created using the WPF API. The remainder of the text will explore how the .NET platform facilitates the construction of browser-based presentation layers using a technology named ASP.NET. To begin, you’ll quickly overview a number of key web development concepts (HTTP, HTML, client-side scripting, postbacks) and examine the role of Microsoft’s commercial web server (IIS) as well as that of the ASP.NET Development Web Server. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
