Amazon.com Sales Rank: 946228 Featured Customer Reviews Did Author Lose Interest?, September 04, 2006 I would NOT recommend this book. I purchased it 2 years ago and have read much of the code and downloaded several examples. At that time the web site referenced appeared to be only half completed. Now, in September 2006, the url is not even available. While many of the code examples are well explained, in themselves they are not adequate to duplicate the projects. Unfortunately, it appears that the author has lost interest. That's a shame because this severely limits the value of the textbook. Worst book, September 23, 2004 I bought this book thinking that the case study will help to learn more but at several place there are errors in the code. On top of that you can not down load the code from web www.aspnet-solutions.com to check and correct your code. Sent several emails to author but no reply. DO NOT BUY this book Best for classic ASP developers, July 21, 2004 This a great book for transitioning knowledge without a drastic paradigm shift, as it doesn't rely heavily on data binding. (not like EVERY other ASP.NET & ADO.NET book I've picked up.) Great alternatives presented (and performance-wise, they probably run more efficiently). Also a great learn-by-doing book, instead of a language reference. Made the connection for me. Looking for a book with good examples? Not this one, May 31, 2004 I'm about half way through this book and its poor. The idea is good but the examples are full of security holes and the companion website still has "coming soon" messages for some of the source code.Some examples are supposed to be written in C# but switch to VB half way through. These are not best practices. It appears the author cares more about getting the next version out than supporting this version. DONT BUY THIS BOOK. Website Improved, May 11, 2004 I just wanted to comment because I noticed this book being knocked for not having complete source code and for having missing links on the website. The problems seem to have been rectified. Thumbing through the book for over an hour at the bookstore gave me the strong impression that this is a very good book to aid any self taught programmer in improving their techniques, following better practices than they may have developed on their own and/or through clipping ideas off the internet. It also seems to include many/most of the types if things that a real-world web programmer would want to know how to accomplish. You might also be interested in these items...
