This book is great, my website is much improved because of it but, in the coding examples there are many mistakes, After you read the book though you should be able to correct these. I also found it very simple to edit applications to create amazing databases and asp pages. I suggest this book for people who havde general knowledge of html. Check it out!

Excellent examples of ASP Code using ADO

The book assumes that you can access a server that can execute ASP. I used Personal Web Server that ships with VB 6.0 on Windows 98. I typed in several of the examples in the first few chapters and all of the code works and is complete. I also downloaded all of the source code from this site. I set up the odbc connections as shown and the code from ch10,11, and 12 is flawless. I haven't completed the other chapters yet. The author illustrates the frontpage editor to build forms which will save a lot of programming time on real projects. I used frontpage express(the cut down version of frontpage) and it generates the same Java code found in the authors examples. I appreciate the use of real world examples as opposed to meaningless snippets of code in countless other books. I would like to thank the author for this terrific book.
This Book Was Extremely Helpful

I love this series of books, I have learned everything from HTML to Linux with them. I find them VERY comprehensive, and the best rescource around (besides someone who actually knows it and is willing to help you learn). And this book was no different, easily worth the $27 I spent on it. I don't see why others have given such a negative review, I think that anyone who had maybe an hour a day for 21 days could EASILY comprehend the contents. Thank you Sanjaya!!!
