ASP.NET 2.0 MVP Hacks and Tips

Book description:
As Microsoft MVPs, this team of authors has witnessed first-hand the innumerable problems and challenges that even the most experienced developers regularly encounter. This project survival guide offers little-known solutions, undocumented features, tips, and tricks -- otherwise known as hacks -- that you can use to build and deliver real-life applications using ASP.NET.

Written with the seasoned professional in mind, this book examines how some hacks ultimately become mainstream code or practices that are integrated into a product or process. You'll benefit from the extensive experience of the authors as they show you how to adapt various hacks to your specific application and business environment. Plus, in-depth discussions of the solutions prove to be a helpful way to learn more about the inner workings of ASP.NET 2.0.

What you will learn from this book:

  • Various hacks such as page templates, multiple forms, URL rewriting, and SQL cache dependencies
  • The many improvements in ASP.NET 2.0 that were originally hacks but are now part of the base product
  • How the many new built-in functions reduce the amount of code you need to write for the most common applications
