Professional ASP.NET 4 in C# and VB





This book was written to introduce you to the features and
capabilities that ASP.NET 4 offers, as well as to give you an
explanation of the foundation that ASP.NET provides. We assume you have a
general understanding of Web technologies, such as previous versions of
ASP.NET, Active Server Pages 2.0/3.0, or JavaServer Pages. If you
understand the basics of Web programming, you should not have much
trouble following along with this book’s content.If you are brand new to
ASP.NET, be sure to check out Beginning ASP.NET 4: In C# and VB by Imar
Spaanjaars (Wiley Publishing, Inc., 2010) to help you understand the
basics.

In addition to working with Web technologies, we also assume that you
understand basic programming constructs, such as variables, For Each
loops, and object-oriented programming.

You may also be wondering whether this book is for the Visual Basic
developer or the C# developer. We are happy to say that it is for both!
When the code differs substantially, this book provides examples in both
VB and C#.
