ASP.NET Starter Kit

HelloWorld · #1 (**permalink**) 06-24-2007, 12:26 AM

Hello, I'm back with my tutorial series!!!

hopefully you guys are a little bit excited because I want to share a little bit of my experience.. Please let me know if there's any correction that I have to make in this tutorial, and feel free to give some additional comments if you have better way to solve some problems

First of all, before starting to program ASP.NET, you need to make sure that you have at least the first and second component below: (third component is recommended)
1. IIS (Internet Information Services) - If you're using Windows XP, you can follow the step below:
Control Panel --> Add/Remove Program --> Add/Remove Windows Components --> Check the IIS (Internet Information Services)

Note that at this point you will need your genuine Windows XP SP2 CD to install this component to your windows operating system.

IIS will let you run your .asp .aspx file locally.

2. .NET Framework 2.0 here:

Download details: .NET Framework 2.0 Software Development Kit (SDK) (x86) - UPDATED LINK!
You need to download and install this component in order to test .asp and .aspx on your local machine

3. I'm currently using Mirosoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional. There's other IDE such as Dreamweaver. You can get the Visual Web Developer Express Edition for free here:

Visual Studio Express: Visual Web Developer - Easy to Use

Note that you can write codes by using Visual Basic or C#. In this tutorial, I'll be using C#. Why? Because it's my preference, some people found that VB is better than C# haha...

Let's now write codes:

Default.aspx

PHP Code:

  <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true"  CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

<head runat="server">

    <title>My First ASP.NET Web Page</title>

</head>

<body>

    <form id="shoutForm" runat="server">

    <div>

        <asp:TextBox ID="name" runat="server" Width="296px"></asp:TextBox>

        <asp:Button ID="shoutBtn" OnClick="submit" runat="server" Text="SHOUT NOW!" /></div>

        <p><asp:Label ID="shoutName" runat="server"></asp:Label></p>

    </form>

</body>

</html>

Default.aspx.cs

PHP Code:

  using System;

using System.Data;

using System.Configuration;

using System.Web;

using System.Web.Security;

using System.Web.UI;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;

using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

 
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page 

{

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

        shoutName.Text = "HI EVERYBODY! MY NAME IS " + name.Text;

    }

}

Try out the program, and see if it works? Explanation of this program is fairly simple. Whatever is in my Default.aspx will be sent to the server Default.aspx.cs and processed there to create another input, which is your name

I got this error message when I try to compile the program:

Code:

Error	1	'ASP.default_aspx' does not contain a definition for 'submit'

does anybody have ideas?

Sorry for the confusions of this thread, this one will surely work!

Default.aspx

PHP Code:

  <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true"  CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

<head runat="server">

    <title>ASP.NET Web Test Form</title>

</head>

<body>

    <form id="shoutForm" runat="server">

    <div>

        <asp:TextBox ID="name" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

        <asp:Button ID="submit" runat="server" OnClick="BtnOnClick" Text="SHOUT!" />

        <p>

            <asp:Label ID="result" runat="server"></asp:Label>

        </p>

    </div>

    </form>

</body>

</html>

Default.aspx.cs

PHP Code:

  using System;

using System.Data;

using System.Configuration;

using System.Web;

using System.Web.Security;

using System.Web.UI;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;

using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

 
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page 

{

    protected void BtnOnClick(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

        String value = name.Text;

        result.Text = "HELLO! MY NAME IS " + value;

    }

}

hopefully the code itself is self explanatory...

if not, then ask questions... I'm not an expert at this, but I'm also learning ASP.NET

Thanx

I probably will need your help in the future. But do you strictly only use VB instead of C#? You said last time that you could also do it in C# right..? For me, VB is just not really working for some reason, probably later once I'm done learning it with C#, then try it out with VB
