Books on ASP

Hey everyone,

Im mainly into php, but i want to start learning ASP soon, Ive been though the books section on devarticles. but i would like to hear some of your comments and suggestions on what book i should buy

Thanks in advance.

P.S. if you could could you please provide a link to where i could buy the book. thanks

oh yeah, i forgot to mention, i just want to learn ASP not ASP.NET

Thanks

for ASP hands down professional asp by wrox is the best book to learn from. if you've worked with php then it will be fairly easy coz u already know the basis on form posting, sessions, cookies, databases, etc.

it's at amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/A...8317801-5415154

geez that's a long URL haha. or one other favorite of mine is the "Sams" series for ASP in 24 hours: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/A...8317801-5415154

don't go for a beginners book if you've already got php under your belt.

Thanks,

its pay day tomorrow, so i think i will head down to the local book shop.

Hi
Asp is so cool i started with asp and then went on with php the migration is very easy both ways as for the books one is Teach yourself asp in 21 days that is great to start off with and the other is the wrox publication but that is at the advanced level but u can learn a lot

thx, im thinking about buying both books, because i also read the reviews on amazon.com.

but thx for your comment, and keep them posts comming along

Hmm, how similar is ASP to PHP? I'm only familiar with PHP with MySQL. Is it hard to migrate or will I get the hang of it after a few chapters?

from what ive been told (i dont know asp) asp and php are simular, in terms of structure, but they have different funtions, but you can basically achive the same thing with asp and php

I would love to learn a bit of ASP so I can work on both systems. Too bad one OS doesn't support all the web development languages =\.

Beginning ASP 3.0 by wrox, rox.

then when your thru with that try the ASP3.0 programmers reference, which also rox!

peace
