  Book Information

With this book, web developers can build engaging and
interactive sites and applications using Microsoft's latest
web development tools -- ASP.NET 2.0 and the new ASP.NET
AJAX framework. You learn to create applications that have
all the great tricks you see on popular commercial web
sites, such as order forms and the ability to interact with
a database. And you can build pages that display information
interactively without a page refresh. This straightforward
tutorial explains how.

Learning ASP.NET 2.0 with AJAX helps you master the concepts
and techniques of Microsoft's tools with plenty of annotated
examples, review quizzes, web construction exercises and
chapter summaries, so you can practice new skills and test
your understanding as you go. With it, you'll learn to:

Master the fundamental skills of ASP.NET 2.0 to build
professional quality web applications

Integrate new Ajax tools and CSS with ASP.NET 2.0 for
flashier and more interactive sites

Build applications with minimal coding using Visual Studio
or its free counterpart, Visual Web Developer

Connect your site with a database so that users can
retrieve, interact and save data

Debug your application, deal with unexpected problems, and
protect your site from malicious users

Use the community-maintained ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit to
extend the controls that come with ASP.NET AJAX

Use personalization tools to give your site a customized
look for each user
