The tutorial shows you how to create stored procedures, after which you'll see how to use stored procedures in an ASP .NET web application.

Ideally, every application built would be designed with correct date handling techniques. In practice, applications are often built using ad hoc date formatting to match a corporate culture, the default format on a company’s server, or the favorite format of the lead developer. Also, many applications are not locale aware or were not designed to be deployed in an environment where locale issues were not considered important. Because of this it is extremely important to know the date formats in use for input and output when building applications that will integrate with other systems or databases and to handle these formats explicitly.

Demonstrates how to use custom validation on a form by checking to see if a string in a TextBox is not the same with a string from an array (or database), case in which it displays 'This name is already taken'.

ASP.NET pages are dynamically compiled on demand when first required in the context of a Web application. Dynamic compilation is not specific to ASP.NET pages (.aspx files); it also occurs with Web Services (.asmx files), Web user controls (.ascx files), HTTP handlers (.ashx files), and ASP.NET application files such as the global.asax file. But what does it mean exactly that an ASP.NET page is compiled?

ASP.NET provides extensive tracing and debugging capabilities, an area that has been neglected for web developers in the past. With its new compilation model, debugging a page becomes as natural as debugging any other application.

A guide that shows you how to install IIS server and configure it to work with ASP .NET (.aspx files), not just with ASP.

ASP.NET provides three primary forms of caching: page level output caching, user control level output caching (or fragment caching), and the Cache API. Output caching and fragment caching have the advantage of being incredibly simple to implement, and are sufficient in many cases. The cache API provides additional flexibility (quite a lot, in fact), and can be used to take advantage of caching throughout every application.

We will use RDN function to generate a random number. Our first example generates a random number between 1 ~ 10.

In this article we will generate a random serial code for our applications. The script will generate a similiar serial code to use in a real application.

Programmers familiar with JSP's Model II/struts architecture and others generally familiar with Model View Controller (MVC) architectures, immediately wonder how the MVC pattern can be applied in an ASP.NET world. This article demonstrates how the MVC pattern can be applied to an ASP.NET web application without breaking the basic Microsoft supplied architecture.

The objective of this lab is to convert a simple JSP application into an ASP.NET application using the Java Language Conversion Assistant (JLCA). The JSP application is a simplified e-commerce scenario, consisting of two JSP pages, a Servlet, a tag library consisting of a single tag, and the SQL Server Pubs database.

In this lab, you will create a Web application to manage a list of products as part of a Sales Order System. You will also learn how to create and deploy this Web application. To sign into the Sales Order System you need to enter the User ID and password in the login page. You will first create the login page, which is an ASP.NET page (Web form) using ASP .NET server controls.

Caching in Web applications can provide dramatic improvements in performance. ASP.NET provides caching at several levels for you to leverage and improve the responsiveness of your application.

In this lab you will build a mobile Web application that allows users to calculate their monthly mortgage payment from any mobile device, including cell phones, pagers and PDAs. ASP.NET mobile controls extend ASP.NET and Visual Studio .NET 2003 IDE to make it fast and easy to build mobile Web applications. You will create a mobile Web form project using Visual Studio .NET 2003 and consume an XML Web Service from your Mobile Front end and test it with multiple device emulators.

Learn the difference between Classic ASP techniques and the new Templating method in ASP.NET.

Recently we had a Website that was redone from a large static site to a dynamically driven site in ASP.Net. The original site was heavily indexed by the major spiders on the Web, we did not want to lose the reference links in the engines and wanted to make sure the link clicked on would go to an appropriate paged in the site. In this article we cover how to create a document mapper so the old URL is redirected to the new related page within the new site.
