 Examples OK but CODE is an embarrassment March 24, 2006

3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have been out of coding for a few years, so picked this book up to teach myself ASP. Did it teach it to me? Yes. But considering that he has been teaching for as long as he claims the coding standards are _shocking_. Any programmer with half an ability knows that the bad old day of few comments and zero indentation are a thing of the past. I found following the code near to impossible, I have not seen code this badly formatted and written in twenty years since I first started coding. Robert B Mellor should be embarrassed, I am for him!
Not for beginners March 18, 2006

I bought this book to learn ASP after reading all the positive ratings. This little book starts with the examples and then give you only hints here and there. If you have no knowledge of ASP beforehand you simply get lost in no time. This may be a good book for experienced webdesigners or tutors to use as a tool. For beginners it is not on.
 Great Teaching Text November 14, 2005

This is exactly what i was looking for. i am teaching novices at a community college and this method worked perfectly for them. Together with an introduction to SQL that i put together, this stretched perfectly to 15 weeks.
The only qualm i would have is that there are typos in the book which make the code not work which is less than ideal but as i was able to catch these before the students did, it worked out.
ASP: Learning by Example August 2, 2005

I've read other ASP books, but this book showed me alternate ways of using ASP, making me understand the subject more, in a way that you can not find in other books. The author explained and showed a complicated topic in simple terms. He summarized the subject into topics that really mattered and in an organized way, much like how a computer instructor would summarize his notes as preparation before delivering the subject in a classroom. I'd recommend the book to instructors, students and to anyone who would like to grasp the subject of ASP.
Excellent! May 11, 2005

I am a beginning ASP developer and truly needed experience connecting to databases without needing to setup a DSN for each and every application that I make. This book shows extremely simple and understandable examples that make learning connections a sinch! Much appreciation to Robert on this book, it's a great help!
