Guide Review

A "Must-Have" for Serious ASP Developers Another O'Reilly book, ASP in a Nutshell provides the familiar concise "what you need to know" content we've come to expect. This book begins with a brief introduction to Active Server Pages followed by a comprehensive object reference and installable component reference. My copy is always sitting on a corner of my desk and the pages are dog-eared. If you often find yourself wondering "What was the name of that property?" or "Isn't there a method that does that?" you'll love this book as much as I do. It's a refreshing printed alternative to the MSDN library for those of us who like a book in one hand and a keyboard in the other.
