Summary: Mr. Chase handles a complex subject well.
Comment: ASP is not as simple as HTML. Speaking from experience, I can say learning ASP can be frustrating. For example, not all web hosting sites will support ASP. Still, in my experience, ASP from Scratch does a good job introducing the beginner to the subject. Before devoting too much time to ASP development, it would be prudent to ask the hosting service how their servers handle interactive programming. Once you know for certain AS Pages are supported you can get started in earnest and "ASP from Scratch" is a good tool to start with. To use this book, you should have a familiarity with HTML. Nicholas Chase walks the reader through the interactivity of ASP from simple to complex very well. The book is well organized and his writing is clear and understandable. Still, due to security and other issues, a web hosting site may require a programmer to use some site specific syntax. Again, a few good questions to the web host's technical support people will serve the reader well. Overall, I can recommend this book to any serious ASP programmer. There are a few typos that the author has corrected and posted at his web site. There aren't many, but a few minutes to insert these corrections before you get started will make your use of the book easier. If you take the time to read and study Mr. Chase's work, you'll learn a lot about ASP's. I have. RJones

Summary: A good book for asp database developers!
Comment: This book certainly is not for novice reader. However, this book covers some areas which will certainly be very helpful to beginners as well as intermediate level database developers. There are very good examples in this book which can be used in a variety of ways. I was really impressed with chapters 5 and 7. Not very many books show such examples. For example, in chapter 7, it shows you how to update multiple records (updating quantity in a shopping cart) by using very simple sql statements. Certainly there are some typos in this book. Personally, if I want to test something, I like to type the codes myself rather than using codes from the CDs. This way I can ignore the codes which will not serve my purpose. Overall, this is a very good book for asp database developers.
