Web Server Controls
Web Server Controls are most advanced controls in Asp.net. Each control comes with tons of features that allows developer to complete task in less time. Web Server Controls are executed on Server. Web Server Controls include datagrid control, datalist control, calendar control and many many more.
Special Note:
When dealing with different types of controls one must always remember that when to use which control. If control will only act as a static entity than you should always use HTML Controls. If control will be dynamic you should use Web Server Controls.
Language Options:
Asp.net provides lets you choose scripting language between javascript and VbScript. This is beneficial for java programmers as well as VB programmers since they already have basic background of language. Caching features:
Asp.net also introduces caching features which increases performance of application. Caching allows developer to save recently used data in a cache variable so that if does not have to spend any time looking for it in future when anyone requests it.
Tools:
Asp.net pages can be made in variety of tools. The most basic editor is notepad or WordPad. To make development faster Microsoft has introduced Visual Studio development tool which lets developer build enterprise applications in less time. There are many free tools available to build Asp.net application one of them is "WebMatrix" which can be downloaded from www.asp.net.
Asp.net Web Services:
Web Services has change way we develop applications. Sometimes its hard to grasp idea behind web service so I will try to make it as simple as possible. A web service is not a whole application, its a part or a component of a larger application. The basic purpose of web service is to create a link/bridge between two different platforms and exchange data. This data is exchanged in form of XML. XML is nothing but text which is in structured form that is why it's recognized by all platforms.
Developing web services is not any different than developing web applications. You can easily create a web service with same knowledge you have for Asp.net applications.
