Expert ASP.NET 2.0 Advanced Application Design will help you derive maximum performance and reliability from the distributed applications you create with
ASP.NET 2.0.
The book first looks at some of the non-functional requirements that impact the design of a distributed application. It then relates them to the servers and
services available in the .NET 2.0 Framework. ASP.NET 2.0 is the central process for use in distributed .NET applications, and the book closely examines the
ASP.NET 2.0 Framework and its hosting environment, Internet Information Server (IIS). The book looks at how ASP.NET 2.0 is used by different packages within
.NET (like Web Services), and explores how it can be extended to meet your own custom requirements.
The second part of the book drills down and examines some of the common architectural challenges encountered when developing application designs. The book
walks through the tiers of the .NET Framework, starting at the client level and exploring the internals of the page type, enhancements to ViewState, client
script generation, and new out-of-band callbacks. At the middle tier, the book examines Web Services, Remoting, COM+, MSMQ, and mix and match communication
options to suit your own requirements. This section wraps up by previewing Windows Communication Foundation, which aims to unify these technologies.
The third part of the book examines the data layer of your distributed applications. This includes enhancements to the Managed Providers in 2.0, the new
transactional model, and a preview of usage guidelines for SQL Server 2005. By the book’s conclusion, you will be able to select with confidence the most
appropriate design elements for your purposes, elegantly connecting them, and ensuring you get the very best from the ASP.NET 2.0 Framework.

Professional ASP.NET 2.0 Design: CSS, Themes, and Master Pages
Themes are a way to allow programmers to establish “skinnable” websites that can be programmatically adjusted for various purposes. A webmaster may decide
that there should be a certain look and feel for site administrators while registered users see a different look and the remaining users see still a
different view when they visit the site. This could include, among other things, completely different controls, graphics, and/or color schemes for each
group. Users may want to set up a theme specifically targeted to meet the needs of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that removes all images and
background colors and leaves the pages in stark contrast for that particular user group. Or maybe the developer just wants to let people choose the way they
experience the site each time they visit.
Themes are very powerful and this book aims to highlight the potential of ASP.NET 2.0 Themes as well as their relationship to master pages and CSS in web
applications today and illustrate many of the facets that can and should be included in theme development. While not specifically a designer’s book, an
overview of good web design and even a cheater’s guide to PhotoShop will be included with the intent of taking the average ASP.NET Programmer and given them
the knowledge to be “Renaissance Men and Women” of web design.
Specific topics covered in the book include:
• Browser, bandwidth, and accessibility considerations
• Use of color, fonts, multimedia
• CSS classes, elements, and Visual Studio CSS tools
• Master pages, child pages, and inheritance
• Consistent navigation and Site Maps
• Theme files, skin files, and applying themes
• A mobile theme example
• Basic PhotoShop tricks for Web Developers
