University. Keogh has spent decades developing applications for major Wall
Street corporations and is the author of more than 65 books including J2EE: The

Demystijied, XML Demystijied, and others in the Demystified series.
Introduction
Most of us have gone online to check our bank account, pay bills, or place an order
from an e-commerce web site, and we were probably amazed at how these companies
were able to display our personal information on their web pages.
Within seconds of entering our user ID and password we can view our records
on the screen. This seems like a miracle considering the amount of time you
spend creating your web page. At first you might think they have an army of web
builders quickly looking up your information in their databases and then creating
a customized web page for you. That's not practical, so there might be a secret
method they use-and there is.
Web developers us ASPNET to perform tasks normally performed by employees
to serve the needs of their customers, such as:
Verifying that the person is a customer
Understanding the needs of the customer
Retrieving the customer's information from the company's database
Building a web page
Transmitting the customized web page containing customer information to
the customer
ASPNET is server-side software used to create interactive, dynamic web sites
that can interface with databases that are also used by other corporate systems such
as accounting, order entry, and shipping systems.
If you want to learn how to build high traffic web sites, then you've purchased the
right book because ASPNET has been adopted by some of the most popular, high
demand sites on the Internet.
The Home Shopping Network uses ASP.NET to process orders from thousands
of customers every day. Microsoft uses ASP.NET for their web site to meet the
needs of their customers 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
You might be a little apprehensive learning ASP.NET, especially if you are
a web developer and not a computer programmer. ASP.NET can be mystifying;
however, it becomes demystified as you read ASPNET 2.0 Demystijied because
your knowledge of HTML is used as the foundation for learning to write ASP.NET
dynamic web pages.
As you'll see when you write your first ASP.NET application, each element of
ASP.NET is introduced by combining a working web page with just the ASP.NET
element you need. You already know 90 percent of the code that creates the web
page because it is HTML. The remaining 10 percent of the code is ASP.NET, which
is clearly explained in every chapter.
Like many developers, you probably learn by doing. You'll like reading
ASRNET 2.0 Demyst@ed because it uses a hands-on approach to teaching
ASP.NET. You can copy examples illustrated in this book from our web site and
experiment with each ASPNET concept presented in this book. Load the web page
and see the effect of ASP.NET. Copy the ASP-NET and reload the web page and
see how the web page reacts without the ASP.NET. You can then incorporate the
ASP.NET into your own web page and move on to the next topic.
By the end of this book you'll be able to make your own classy web site that will
leave even the sophisticated web surfer in awe and web developers scratching their
heads, asking, "How did he do that?"
A Look Inside
ASP.NET can be challenging to learn unless you follow the step-by-step approach
that is used in this book. Topics are presented in the order in which many developers
like to learn them, starting with basic components and then gradually moving on to
those features found on classy web sites.
Each chapter follows a time-tested formula that first explains the topic in an
easy-to-read style and then shows how it is used in a working web page that you can
copy and load yourself. You can then compare your web page with the image of the
web page shown in the chapter to be assured that you've coded the web page
correctly. In addition, each chapter also includes a practice quiz and answer section.
There is little room for you to go wrong.
