Hello, I need a recommendation for a good book to learn asp.net. I am a Systems Administrator for a medium-sized organization, and I need to develop a web site for users to do account maintenance in a self-service environment. I am fairly experienced with programming fat client software. I have done a lot of VB 6 programming. Additionally, I have worked with Microsoft .Net and Visual Studio 2005, primarily writing console applications to automate systems administration tasks. But I have little to no web programming experience. I don't need help with the VB or C# languages, constructs, syntax, etc. What I do need a better understanding of is web programming. I comprehend that a web site is essentially a series of programs, each contained in an individual aspx page. I have created aspx pages, inserted controls, understand the difference between server-side and client-side controls, etc. What I don't get is how to pass data among the pages. Or, how to open a connection to a SQL Database and keep it open throughout a session. Any recommendations on a book for someone who is not new to programming, but is new to web programming, would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance. |
