Product Description
ASP.NET 2.0 is the new version of Microsoft's groundbreaking server-side scripting language. There is currently a huge demand to integrate dynamic content into Flash websites and applications and, as a solid competitor to technologies such as JSP, PHP, and ColdFusion, ASP.NET is one of the most popular choices to achieve this.

Used in conjunction with Flash, ASP.NET can process, store, and create new data, and work as a bridge between the Flash movie and external data sources, enabling web designers to build dynamic, interactive web applications, incorporating information from a host of databases.

Whether you're a Flash designer or an ASP.NET developer, this highly readable Foundation book will provide a a thorough grounding to integrating Flash , ActionScript 2.0, ASP.NET, and databases. Along the way you’ll study features such as email integration, saving visitor information, dynamic updating, and much more. Foundation ASP.NET 2.0 for Flash will take you through the essentials of ASP.NET/C#, setting up your development environment, sending data to and from Flash, database integration, and then on to advanced topics such as web services, Flash Remoting, XML data, and securing your applications.

5 out of 5 stars A true foundation for learning ASP.NET / Flash integration   July 7, 2006
Spiro L. Mifsud (Los Angeles, CA)

A great primer on C# and installation of a local development environment using the free tools that Microsoft offered. All instructions and descriptions are step-by-step. Also includes important information on third-party Visual Studio components that allow you to send data between flash and .NET for pages that not completely inside the Flash interface. This book solidly provides multiple methods to interface with your flash applications using ASP.NET 2.0 with Flash remoting, Web services, and FlashVars... Highly Recommended.. Everything here as advertised!

I would like to make this short and sweet. Mr. Moore is at the forefront of the .net community. Without this book, I would have spent the next couple of years trying to learn all of what this book gives me, all for the price of taking my girlfriend to a movie! My offerings to my customers has expanded exponentially, and that, is what this is all about!

5 Stars!!!!



4 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to ASP.Net for Flashers   February 25, 2006

I've been a Flash developer for awhile now, have used it with PHP/ASP and other server technologies - but have avoided the learning curve of .Net. FOE books are great at giving you the basics so that you can get up and running quickly, and the tutorials in the book are usually spot-on for applying those basics. Read the book and did the exercises in one week, and now am writing basic Web Services, .dll files, and using remoting with Flash on a basic level - just as I thought I would after finishing the book. There are some typos and ommissions, which seems par for the course these days for technical books (does anybody proof read or edit these things?) - but if you have a genuine knowledge of Flash, you can overcome them pretty easily. Recommended.


4 out of 5 stars A very helpful read.   March 9, 2009

Considering various ways to integrate Flash with other technologies / languages, this book offers a fairly clear cut approach to doing just that with ASP.NET. It is well written and provides various examples of the interaction. Online resources for this publication are also plenty. Very good resource for starters.

This is, as far as I know, the only book available combing basic Flash with basic ASP.NET
