Beginning ASP Databases




"Beginning ASP Databases" by John Kauffman, Kevin Spencer, Thearon Willis
Publisher: Wrox | September 1999 | ISBN: 1861002726 | PDF | 20.22 Mb | 825 Pages

Microsoft created Active Server Pages (ASP) to sew together a group of technologies for creating modern web sites, which can intelligently interact with the user at the front end and with servers and datastores at the back end. Among these technologies is ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), which allows easy, powerful and robust control of technologies that access datastores. This book explains the theory and practice of using ADO with ASP by presenting numerous examples, exercises, lists of common errors and quizzes. The emphasis is on the authors' proven teaching techniques and the presentation of the most commonly used features of ADO in ASP. If you read each chapter and do the exercises you will have a portfolio of several dozen data-intensive web pages of increasing complexity a fine return on your investment.

Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 with ASP, Coldfusion and PHP Training from the Source

In this lesson, you will get familiar with the book's starting and ending points. You'll open the site as it exists today within Dreamweaver.
2. Preparing the Static HTML and CSS
3. Dynamic Web Sites
You'll have an idea of how dynamic sites work, and what they are created to do; you'll have Macromedia Dreamweaver configured to work with dynamic data; and you'll have created your first page that uses dynamic content.
4. Passing Data Between Pages
In this lesson, you will pass data from a URL into a cookie on the user's hard drive to create persistent dynamic data.
5. Sending Email from a Web Form
In this lesson, you'll learn how to configure your system to send email messages, if you are running Internet Information Services (IIS) or Macromedia ColdFusion locally.
6. Building a Tour Price Calculator
In this lesson, you will build a tour price calculator, which enables users to obtain an estimate for the cost of a tour based on the number of adults and children going on the tour.
7. Databases on the Web
This lesson mainly consists of a crash course in databases, including a tour of the database I have prepared for you to use in the rest of the book, and tasks that have you connect your site to the database and display a block of text dynamically pulled from a database.
8. Completing the Price Calculator
You'll learn how to document these blocks using comments, making the scriptsand the documents as a wholeeasier to read and maintain.
9. Filtering and Displaying Data
In this lesson, you will use URL parameters (also known as querystrings) to filter data.
10. Building the Tour Descriptions
11. Building Search Interfaces
In this lesson you will go behind the GUI once again and work extensively with code, especially SQL code.
12. Authenticating Users
In this lesson, you'll create a complete registration and log-in system, taking into account both when things go right and when they go awry.

In this lesson, you will create the simplest portion of the CMS: the form that Newland Tours employees can use to update the Traveler's Journal on the home page.
14. Building Update Pages
In this lesson, you will build an interface that lets employees change a registered user from one user group to another.
15. Hand-Coding a Basic CMS
In this lesson, in contrast to the previous lessons where you built pages that inserted and updated data, you will not rely on Dreamweaver server behaviors.

How to Change Your Life in 7 Steps



In this highly-accessible self-help book, Big Issue founder John Bird explains his seven simple rules that could help you change your life. Whether you want to get a new job, quit smoking, give up drinking or go back to college, "How to Change Your Life in 7 Steps" explains how you can take what you've been given and turn it into something you'll be proud of, rather than spend your life wishing for everything you haven't got. For 99 per cent of us life doesn't come knocking on the door; you have to go out and get it. But the trouble with aiming for the stars is that you're likely to end up in the gutter. John Bird has learnt through his work with the homeless that if you start by putting just 3 per cent of your energy towards your final goal rather than a gutter-hitting 99 per cent you will eventually make the changes you are looking for. John's six other rules are as straightforward as this first one, 'Start With 3 per cent. He writes with passion about the dangers of thinking like a victim and of not telling the truth; he shares with us the importance of thinking for yourself and never putting others down, and he encourages us not to define our successes by the failures of others and to recognise our own achievements.

The Only Astrology book



Swami Sadashiva Tirtha, "The Ayurveda Encyclopedia: Natural Secrets to Healing, Prevention, & Longevity"
Sat Yuga Press | 2007 | ISBN: 0965804259 | 675 pages | PDF | 19,7 MB

Although there is no shortage of books that attempt to explain Ayurveda medicine (a system that originated in India about 5000 years ago) to a popular audience, the author, instructor at the Ayurveda Holistic Health Center in Bayville, NY, claims that this is the first English-language textbook on the subject. However, he does little to simplify this complicated system and goes into too much detail not only for average readers but for health practitioners who want to learn more about this form of treatment. Many of his statements seem far-fetched (e.g., can the color orange really help with menstrual cramps?). Organization is poor; for instance, information on therapies for diabetes is spread throughout the book rather than being concentrated in the section on diseases. Perhaps the most useful information here is the list of Ayurvedic resources and the glossary containing clear definitions of many of the terms used. Better choices for books on Ayurveda medicine include titles by Vasant Lad (Ayurveda: The Science of Self Healing, Lotus Light, 1990) and Deepak Chopra (Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, LJ 6/15/93). Recommended only for libraries with extensive collections in alternative medicine.?Natalie Kupferberg, Arizona State Univ. West, Phoenix
