Great Book for Intermediate and Advance Readers

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2012

Verified Purchase

This book is very well written. Many labs are included. You could tell that the author has deep practical insights about ASP.Net. I am an Expression Web user, so some of the chapters did not relate to me. The author used Visual Web Developer as the reference when creating examples in those sections. I learned a lot from the Expression web related examples. So, I was able to use some of the code for my Expression Web projects. The author has files for all the examples in the book, which was great. I downloaded them all and reviewed those that I needed. I would say that a novice ASP.Net user would need other materials to understand the book. But this is a very good reference book.

Great book for people who are sick of trying to learn Web Page development/design from a book!

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2008

Verified Purchase

I must have purchased 10 books on how to develope a website from the ground up. Within the first 5 chapters, without fail, something integral to the entire website that they take for granted working, wouldn't work for me, and after a week or two of trying to fix the issue, I would normally give up. I repeated this process for about the past 6 months.

Some background on me, I'm 28, I have a BS in computer science, but generally learned nothing in college, of business value anyway. I am lightly familiar with coding/designing, if given enough time I could read the code and tell you about what most things do in C++ or VB, (And their .net equivalents), but ask me to program something, and I wouldn't even know where to start. This is why I am heavily dependant on any programing examples in a book working...

This book is definitely more a designers guide to building a website, but by that, I mean it shows you how to create a website from the ground up, and every short cut possible where you can have Visual Web Developer (VWD) button, or option do the work of coding. This is like a god send for people like me, that want to learn coding, but not as badly as we want to learn how to create .NET websites. I didn't get stuck for more than a few minutes anywhere.

There are no "stories from the trenches" that many books put in just to fill in space and bore you inbetween what you actually want to know. This book is VERY concisely written telling you what you need to know. This book does not go into great depth in any great part, it briefly touches on just about everything you could need to run your own website though and makes recommendations for either websites or books to purchase to get additional information.

In conclusion, this book is great for beginners, and I would, and have recommended it to everyone I know who, similar to me, wants to create a professional looking website, that doesn't have the programing skills to make it happen. I'd imagine though, if you are above beginner level, this book would not be for you.

Wrong book for me

Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2011

Verified Purchase

Maybe it's because this book is three years old but I expected more from it anyway. I bought Expression Web 4 in order to learn it and I thought this book would help me learn how to incorporate ASP.NET into web pages. It turns out that, despite the title, there is very little in this book about Expression Web. All of the entries in the index for Expression Web span the pages 132-139 out of a 450-page book. I would return it but I highlighted the web address to register the book before I took a hard look at what was in it.

Review Arthur O Hara The Microsoft Expression Web Developer's Guide to ASP.NET 3.5.

Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2010

Verified Purchase

For someone with my expertise, which lies between medium to advanced this publication by Jim Cheshire is another of his masterful works delivering knowledge and referencing where it matters, to help in utilising the excellent functionality of ASP.NET applications using Visual Web Developer 2008 and Expression Studio 3.

The buzz and "feel-good" factor resulting from successfully authoring some otherwise non-surmountable applications with such simplicity borders on magic.

The ease and cost effectiveness with which the online purchase of the book on Amazon.com was made and the rapid delivery is to be commended.

Thank you Jim and QUE for such an excellent publication!

VWD 2008 Express

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2007

Verified Purchase

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 Training Book

Although this book is not as well written as his book on Expression Web it is still a very good training book for Expression Web Developer.

Excellent 1st book for beginning web programmers

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2009

I am a newbie to web programming (had a few years of Windows app development experience) and face the situation where I have to produce web apps in a short time. This book gave me a solid start. I had tried several bigger books but they always give me too much "theory" to digest and not enough demo on what steps to take to accomplish a task! Also, this book is definitely not limited to Expression web developers so don't skip it just because you are not a Expression web developer. Comparing to Murach's ASP.NET 2.0 web programming with VB 2005 (800 pages) which I also like, this book gives you more completed coverage on the subject with less than 500 pages. And they both take similar approach to teach the subject. Sure it doesn't tell me how to do all the "tricks" I needed to do with my app. but no book does! I wish I had found this book first so I didn't waste so much time feeling so lost and frustrated. So if you are pressed for time, need step by step instructions and need to deliver an app. quick. Start with this book.
