http://www.aspin.com

It's basically a big search engine connected to many other great sites, and independant code snippets. Most of what I've learned has come from this website.

Happy hunting!

For basic, clear, working examples, you can't beat http://www.w3schools.com with a stick. But some of the other sites above may give you more detailed info in the meantime. :)

do people even try to find sites on their own? type "asp tutorial" into a search engine for gods sake!

I would suggest to anyone new to ASP these steps:

1. Buy "Beginning ASP 3.0" by Wrox.com
2. Visit the following sites:

http://www.webmonkey.com (and look for their "Rugged ASP" tutorial, especially if you are not familiar with SQL or databases).

3. Visit the above site again.
4. Perhaps visit the following:

http://www.w3schools.com (the absolute best site on the internet for so many things, that you can't even imagine.)

http://www.4guysfromrolla.com
http://www.liquidrage.com
http://www.devguru.com
http://www.asp101.com

The above websites (in conjunction with actual reference material) should give anyone a very solid foundation in ASP/VBScript programming (and if you have bought a book as well, and studied it, you will be unstoppable!)... not to mention after mastering that, you will have a solid foundation in everything other programming language. They are all the same when it comes down to the basics. You have variable and datatypes, and you tell them to do something. :D

okay I realize that its a bit extreme, but how about the idea of making a person do a search for a topic before they are allowed to add a new post? I sure would eliminate a lot of redundancy (theoretically)!

I realize that it probably wouldnt work, but I'm tired of people asking the same stupid questions. Why should I try to help if you havn't even tried to help yourself yet? I dont mean to direct this to sandie, but this is a perfect example of what so many people do.

Yeah, what is up with that?

To ask a question here you have to click the new post button type your subject then tab to the message field then write your message followed by the submit buttoin and then play the waiting game which could takes hours if not days.

A google takes less than a second on average.

Type in the search terms which is equiv. to the subject on a post click the search which is equiv. to the submit then playing the extra short waiting game followed by a click.

Some people just don't get the idea of these forums....

:rolleyes:

1) A google search won't tell you which sites your fellow developers find useful.

2) Is this forum not meant to help one another? It's my mistake if it isn't.

3) The subject of this posting is very concise... if you're tired of answering these questions, just pass over it and move on to the next one rather than posting a reply about how much you hate posting replys to these posts. Clear?

Sorry to sound like a parent, but I don't think it's right to discourage another from seeking advice and learning.

This exact question has been asked several times before on this forum!!! That is why I get fustrated, people can't even search within the forum to find the same questions that they have that have already been answered. I am not discouraging anyone from posting a question, but people need to show some initiative. When I spend my time answering a question and then for someone to ask the same question a few days later I feel like I'm wasting my time.


Don't try to lecture me about the usefullness of the forum... I see from your whopping 2 posts that you've helped a lot of people!

Well, I see valid points on both sides of this issue, and it's not helping the thread to argue about it either way, so I'm going to close it.

The suggestions posted above should be a great start. :)
