Watch ASP.NET Development in Action

Watch how easy it is to build a “to do” task list application from scratch using ASP.NET 2.0, ASP.NET AJAX, SQL Server Express, and Visual Web Developer.

Microsoft’s Joe Stagner starts by creating a fresh database and the code to access its data. We then see how to define a ToDo List page that displays and updates content in the database. Finally we learn how to add AJAX functionality to the page to improve the user experience.

"...I can't do what the big boys do.  The old man sat down and he cried too."

Seriously though, I'll know I've arrived when I can prototype ASP.NET like that.

Brilliant !!!

I'm a newbie who downloaded and starting using dot net just today, and was absolutely delighted at the result I was able to duplicate by following your demo.

I was initially following the video by frequently pausing, and following along in VWD2008 on the other monitor. I got stuck when it came to the .css file that was used, until I realized they are included in the VB or C# downloads.

Thanks a million  - I'm totally sold on this !!!

Great demo/video.  Just what I needed to get me going on ASP.net.  What you did here would have taken me a while in old school ASP.  I feel more comfortable going from ASP to ASP.net.

Thanks - I's sold on this as well... peace

pgcrooks : On August 21, 2008 5:29 AM said:

Couldn't get this to work at all... Using Visual Studio 2008 Express it fails everytime I biuld the AJAX bit and stuff like the drop down box aren't recognised, even though I dragged them from the toolbox..."Element "DropDownList" is not a known element. Confused!

The incentive to take my knowledge further is built into this demo. Thanks ~ now to allocate time to actually doing it.

Nice video! I jumped ahead toward the end to include the DetailsView in the asyncronous update by adding another trigger in the first UpdatePanel for the DetailsView using the ItemInserted event.  Then I watched the rest of the video and found that you added a second update panel.  They appear to provide the same results, but using the trigger only added a single line.  I understand I am only wiring a single event (ItemInserted), but I am wondering if there are any other differences between adding a trigger like I did, and adding a second UpdatePanel like you did?
