“This book is a great reference for web designers new to ASP.NET who are looking to jump start their development with

Expression Web introduced ASP.NET to a new group of web developers. This book is designed to help you start using ASP.NET right away to add powerful new features to your website. Don’t worry, you won’t have to learn a lot of programming; instead, you’ll create an ASP.NET application from start to finish using Visual Web Developer 2008, while writing only a very small amount of actual programming code.

 

DETAILED INFORMATION ON HOW TO…

     •    Create and work with websites in Visual Web Developer 2008

     •    Use the different compilation and code models in ASP.NET

     •    Configure ASP.NET security and other settings

     •    Use ASP.NET master pages and user controls

     •    Take advantage of ASP.NET membership features for a password-protected website

bad book, August 07, 2008
it is a bad book and poor quality and not user friendly and difficult to understand

to much took before the real information

VWD 2008 Express, December 01, 2007
The title of this book is a little misleading. It deals with Visual Web Developer Express Edition 2008 and does an excellent job of addressing the new features in the 2008 release as well as a valid tool for someone just starting with Visual Web Developer. It takes you through the development of a sample ASP.NET website using Access databases along with user security. It is an excellent reference as well as a tutorial approach for a begginner to intermediate web site creation.

Great tool for ASP.NET designers, November 20, 2007
This book does a superb job furthering one of Microsoft's intentions of the Expression suite: to bridge the gap between designers and developers.

Even though it is targeted toward designers new to ASP.NET, it is actually quite comprehensive in terms of development. I appreciate how a strong foundation was laid right from the start discussing ASP.NET architecture (including the often misunderstood topics of page lifecycle and state management) in plain, concise terms.

What really excites me about this book is that it does not shy away from the administrative side of ASP.NET--configuring membership, validation, security, etc. Far too many designers and developers alike give blank stares when asked how their site is configured.

I will definitely recommend this book to designers on our team, as it will help our upcoming ASP.NET 3.5 projects go much more smoothly.

Now...if I could just find a book of this caliber that works conversely, helping developers get into the mindset of a designer...
