Beginning ASP Databases
November 27, 2000
So you've decided that ASP-ADO is the solution for your
situation, and you've learned how to set it up. Now you're ready
to begin using ASP-ADO to access and manipulate data within web
pages. This chapter discusses the simplest situation – the simple
task of reading the data. Although we are only reading the data,
we can still use it in several ways. Not only can we write it to
the page; we can also use the data in variables, expressions and
as the arguments for other functions.
Beginning ASP Databases explains the theory and practice of using
ADO with ASP by presenting numerous examples, exercises, lists of
common errors and quizzes. The emphasis is on the authors' proven
teaching techniques and the presentation of the most commonly
used features of ADO in ASP. If you read each chapter and do the
exercises you will have a portfolio of several dozen data-
intensive web pages of increasing complexity – a fine return on
your investment.
