Book Description

You will discover the possibilities for developing user interfaces driven by ASP.NET. Author Alex Homer explores techniques and approaches to create attractive, full-featured, and easy-to-use websites and web pages. Further, these web pages will be interactive where appropriate, loosely based on real-world scenarios, and able to fulfill predefined requirements.

This book provides what other books often skimp on: Homer concentrates on site requirement analysis, and design. Then he supports this by discussing site planning and mapping. This well-organized book prevents you from developing your site in a haphazard, unpredictable manner—which makes site development and maintenance so much more difficult! Even the most simplistic starting plan can reduce development and maintenance time, and help you dodge the frustrations resulting from the “no plan” approach.

Living in the picturesque wilderness of the Derbyshire Dales in England, he’s well away from the demands of the real world&emdash;with only an Internet connection to maintain some distant representation of normality. But, hey, what else could you want from life? You can contact Alex through his own software company, Stonebroom Limited, at alex@stonebroom.com.
