5.0 out of 5 stars So well written you will read it cover to cover, April 17, 2000

Ronda Ward - See all my reviews

This review is from: ASP Developer's Guide (CD-ROM included) (Paperback)

With a somewhat limited exposure to ASP I have purchased 3 other 'ASP' books and use them as reference. I have never read a 'computer tech' type book cover to cover until the "ASP Developer's Guide". This book is not only well written but is very thorough! It covers the basics of actually setting up a web with IIS and establishing your global.asa, connections, etc and throughly explains it all very well.

The author gives excellent practical examples with line by line notation on why this is the best and most practical way to design the code. He is also extremely thorough in addressing pieces of the language that one may not use on a day to day basis but, may utilize as an excellent reference tool. I would recommend this book for anyone beginning or actively using ASP. While the subject is often confusing for a total beginner this is by far the best book I have read to get started the right way.

5.0 out of 5 stars I lked his last book very much, but this one is even better!, January 26, 2000

"shubathu" - See all my reviews

This review is from: ASP Developer's Guide (CD-ROM included) (Paperback)

The author's coverage of ASP application development is excellent. The content is well thought out and the numerous examples provide not only great code samples, but also led the me to a number of correct conclusions about how to combine the examples to write more complex code. As in his first book, I find Mr. Buczek's direct writing style facilitates a rapid understanding of the material and his anticipation of my questions is excellent. Probably as important to me as the ASP code is the coverage of other app-dev material that is peripheral to the ASP code itself - I appreciate that he presents the big picture as well as the full ASP code detail. Two thumbs up and thanks!
