Where did you learn to code in ASP? Did you learn it a Uni/College or teach yourself through books & Forums...? Also what ASP book do you still have on your shelf? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Myself.... I am still very much in the learning stage and doing so from Bruces applications and a couple of books. Books on my shelf are:

I taught myself ASP and the first book I ever bought is:- ../books/active_server_pages_by_example.asp - Active Server Pages 3.0 by Example The only other ASP books I have bought and still use all the time are some O'Reilly reference books:- ../books/asp_in_a_nutshell.asp - ASP in a Nutshell - A Desktop Quick Reference ../books/vbscript_in_a_nutshell.asp - VBScript in a Nutshell - A Desktop Quick Reference ../books/vbscript_pocket_reference.asp - VBScript Pocket Reference Although, I started writing Basic 20 years ago now, on a Commodore 64 with their Basic v2, which in some ways is similar to VBscript. I also did a module in VB at University, where I was taught the coding standards that I use within my code. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

I started by by looking on the tutorials on this site. Then I brought the Active Server Pages 3 by Example book, and then ASP in a Nutshell. Before ASP I started to Lean VB (Visual Basic) which is similar to ASP so when I started to use ASP I was familiar with the syntax of it so I picked it up quiote quickly. ------------- http://www.james-r.co.uk" rel="no follow - James http://www.gotrillian.com/?4498-20" rel="no follow - Trillian - M |

| I Learned VB from a course at school. I mainly learned ASP from w3schools and various google searches. The actual books didn't help me that much... |
