Creating a custom date textbox user control - Pt. 1

ASP.NET, What is it, and why should it matter to me?

 What is ASP.NET?
ASP.NET is a powerful web development framework that allows programmers to build some of the world's most powerful applications. Not only does ASP.NET supports web applications, but also have extensive support for desktop and thin client applications.

Why ASP.NET?
You can safely say that choosing ASP.NET for your next applications guarantees that there will always be wide support-- your application most likely will not become extinct as there are thousands of technologies--both from Microsoft, and from third parties, that are built exclusively for .NET. But my favorite reason for recommending .NET is it's extremely ease of use. With limited knowlege of web development you could literally create a fully functional website with very little effort -- that is of course if you're using VisualStudio.net, which can be downloaded from the Microsoft site for FREE. When using VisualStudio.net you literally just point and click without having to write one single line of code.

Welcome to Glaze Smart Zone

Hi, i'm Shurland Moore from Glaze Smart Zone. The purpose of my blog is to share many tips and techniques of development in web technologies with my audience. I've been developing web applications for 7 plus years. During that time, the web have evolved times over. I remember the days of image-cluttered website where designer got carried away with colors and images some to the point of no relevance. Websites have grown much simpler, and more precise and to the point. Consumers no longer have time to be distracted; they want to find what they want, get it, and get the heck on with their day. As a web developer you best be aware of that fact!

In my coming articles i will share with you many techniques ranging from simple html/css to more advanced stuff like ASP.NET development, SilverLight, jQuery and much more. I hope you would find this blog to be useful and you are welcomed to join me for the journey.

See you soon!!
