Book Reviews of ASP.NET 3.5 Unleashed

Book Review: Thumbs Way Up!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is best suited for those already with a basic knowledge of C# and ASP.Net who just want to dive in and quickly get exposed to the vast array of features available in ASP.Net 3.5 for web application development. There are lots of things one can learn from this book. For example, do you know that the ASP.Net Visual Page Designer in Visual Studio 2008 now supports nested Master Pages, or that one can now build pages containing more than one logical forms (say, a Login and a Register form) courtesy of validation group magic? Even the author's discussion of LINQ to SQL contain some materials I have not seen covered in other introductory books dedicated solely to LINQ. Although some chapters contain forward references to future chapters, each chapter is mostly self-contained and therefore, in my opinion, the chapters can be read in arbitrary order, which makes this book a really good reference book.

Summary of ASP.NET 3.5 Unleashed

ASP.NET 3.5 Unleashed is the most comprehensive book available on the Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5 Framework, covering all aspects of the ASP.NET 3.5 Framework--no matter how advanced.

This edition covers all the new features of ASP.NET 3.5. It explains Microsoft LINQ to SQL in detail. It includes a chapter on the two new data access controls introduced with the ASP.NET 3.5 Framework: ListView and DataPager. With its coverage of ASP.NET AJAX, this book shows you how to take advantage of Microsoft’s server-side AJAX framework to retrofit existing ASP.NET applications with AJAX functionality. It also demonstrates how to use Microsoft’s client-side AJAX framework to build the web applications of the future: pure client-side AJAX applications. All code samples are written in the C# programming language. (Visual Basic versions of all code samples are included on the CD-ROM that accompanies this book.)

  • Take advantage of Microsoft’s new database query language, LINQ to SQL, to easily build database-driven web applications
  • Learn how to use the new ListView and DataPager data access controls to build flexible user interfaces
  • Take advantage of ASP.NET AJAX when building both server-side and client-side web applications
  • Use the AJAX Control Toolkit to create auto-complete text fields, draggable panels, masked edit fields, and complex animations
  • Design ASP.NET websites
  • Secure your ASP.NET applications
  • Create custom components
  • Build highly interactive websites that can scale to handle thousands of simultaneous users
  • Learn to build a complete ASP.NET 3.5 website from start to finish–the last chapter of the book includes a sample ASP.NET 3.5 web application written with LINQ to SQL and ASP.NET AJAX

CD-ROM includes all examples and source code presented in this book in both C# and Visual Basic.
