Title: Try again...
Review: Anyone who has experience with HTML, XML, JScript, or VBScript, should avoid this book. The first half is introductions to the above languages with very little or no ASP. Most examples are suitable and others a poorly done and leave too much to the imagination.The slow pace seems to assume the authors expect the reader to have no programming or webpage development background at all, however some of the examples seem so vague in places it would be difficult for a beginner to piece it all together.I don't recommend this book to anyone who is learning ASP or any other mentioned language. While the book does baby step the reader towards more complicated work, I believe it doesn't cover the fundamentals it mentions fully. I suggest reading books on HTML, then CSS, and then ASP. With those three, anyone would be able to make a spiffy looking website with tons of features.
