Seminar
Target Audience
Programmers
Summary
This course provides students with hands on experience using Visual Studio to create dynamic ASP.NET Web Forms applications using C#.
Description/Agenda
Students will learn use the power of ASP.NET Web server controls combined
with HTML5 to design web pages. They will use ASP.NET Validation controls to
provide both client-side and server-side data validation for user input.
Students will learn how to use master pages to enforce a consistent look and
feel across a set of Web pages, as well as how to use user controls to reuse
smaller pieces of HTML across multiple pages.
Students explore the complexities of state management in ASP.NET Web Forms
and how to use session and view state objects to manage state between HTTP
requests.
Students spend time exploring how to use ADO.NET to interact with databases
by running SQL queries and executing stored procedures. They will also learn how
to read/write XML files using DataSets and DataTables. Students learn how
ASP.NET Web Forms data binding to easily display data in list controls, the
GridView control and the DetailsView control.
Microsoft provides support for Ajax-enabled Web Forms applications using the
ASP.NET AJAX Framework. Students will learn how to use some of the server-side
features to make asynchronous postbacks from the browser, perform partial page
updates using the UpdatePanel, use CSS to dim a page during postback and use the
Timer fetch data from the server asynchronously.
Other topics include: using a Web.config file to control application
configuration; working with the query string; working with cookies; reading and
writing files; and deploying ASP.NET web applications. Comprehensive labs
provide the students with extensive experience creating and deploying dynamic
ASP.NET Web Form applications.
This course provides thorough coverage of the use of Web Forms
for web sites. Students requiring additional coverage of ASP.NET MVC,
WCF, Windows Forms or Windows
Presentation Foundation should refer to HOTT's complete course listing
for additional training courses.
Students unfamiliar with the C# language should take the 5-day
ASP.NET 4.5 Web Forms Programming Using C# course instead.
