One ASP.NET book to rule them all. In the last 2 years I have seen a lot of ASP.NET books and they all pretty much suck, whoops, are a bit lacking in real information-) (The notable exception, of course, is Developing Microsoft ASP.NET Server... ) I mean, who really wants to read 500 pages of dragging DataGrids and the like around and setting properties? Do you really need a 1000 page book to figure out how to drag and drop and set properties? So, I have been waiting with great anticpation DM'er Fritz Onion's book as he is one of the crown princes of ASP.NET and I must say that Essential ASP.NET With Examples in C# just absolutely rocks! Right down into the architecture in Chapter 1, Bing! HTTP Pipeline in Chapter 4, Valifation, Data Binding, Custom Controls, etc. In other words, the real stuff. This is the one ASP.NET book to rule them all! Excuse my enthusiasm, I am fueled by Red Bull at the moment-) [Sam Gentile's Blog]
