I saw this book at Borders and I was not too impressed. But hey, that was me and you might be different. This is not a comment about the book as much as I don’t feel that ASP.NET is best done in DreamWeaver and DreamWeaver doesn’t have the best support for ASP.NET so I usually stick to VS unless the pages don’t require server side code.

Imagine when you do your school report on the last night before the deadline. This book touch many interesting topics but only for fooling the buyers. Like I said, like a student write a paper for the professor. Like just cut and paste from other sources. Give me big headache.

I’m looking for a book to use as a text for individuals who have worked extensively with Dreamweaver but have minimal, if any, programming experience. It would seem this book was meant to address this audience with its overview of OOP. So, I was rather shocked when the author covered Inheritance, Namespaces, Directives, the Forms Code Model, Event Handlers, Postback, Viewstate and Inline Render Blocks in eight pages then with no further discussion, went on to show, as a first example, a Dropdownlist and a Calendar control. The reader is asked to follow along by typing in such code as “Calendar1.WeekendDayStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromName(sender.SelectedItem.Value)” with absolutely no explanation, no discussion of the properties and methods of either of these controls. Nothing.
