Essential ASP.NET with Examples in Visual Basic .NET is the Visual Basic programmer's definitive
reference for ASP.NET through version 1.1. It provides experienced programmers with the information
needed to fully understand the technology, and is a clear guide to using ASP.NET to build robust and
well-architected Web applications.

This book begins with a discussion of the rationale behind the design of ASP.NET and an introduction to
how it builds on top of the .NET framework. Subsequent chapters explore the host of new features in
ASP.NET, including the server-side compilation model, code-behind classes, server-side controls, form
validation, the data binding model, and custom control development. Throughout the book, working
examples illustrate best practices for building Web-based applications in VB.NET.

Among the topics explored in depth are:
•
•
• ASP.NET architecture
•
•
• Web forms
•
•
• Configuration
•
•
• HTTP pipeline
•
•
• Diagnostics and error handling
•
•
• Validation
•
•
• Data binding
•
•
• Custom controls
•
•
