Learning A New Web-oriented Programming Language, Where To Begin
Jul 22, 2010
A bit of background: I am familiar with PHP and Java, did some C, C++ and Lisp (gasp!) back in programming classes but never used them too much. So, I've been wanting to step out of PHP a bit for web development. I have a few reasons for this (in no particular order): there's a lot of amateurish code(rs) in PHP, which somehow makes me look bad; I am unhappy with a few quirks in the language; and I really want to try something new. Here are the options I've been looking at:
Python and Ruby (on Rails): They both seem nice, but it looks like I'll have some difficulty finding webhosts that run these. And it appears that Python scripts aren't as portable as PHP (correct me if I am wrong).SP.NET: I have an issue with Microsoft software kind of existing in their own realm. I mean, MS has some really good tools for developers and if you stay within those tools your life is easy. But if you deviate just a bit out of it, you are on your own. And oh, it's not opensource.
So what do you recommend? And if I go with Python (it's tempting), should I use a framework like Django or web2py or should I go down and dirty with the basics (same thing with ASP.NET and MVC)?
EDIT: What I don't like about PHP:
No namespaces
Implicit type conversions can cause problems
Many silent errors
No unicode support
Slow
....

My task for today is to fully understand event-driven programming and how it works. Now there are several ways this can be achieved. The first one is to actually program a basic program that covers the key concepts, and the second approach is to watch a video that explains the key concepts in a way I can understand. Which approach do people recommend?
Does anyone have videos/program demos they found useful and could recommend to me? My major experiences are with ASP.NET MVC, so it would be best if the tutorial were with WebForms ASP.NET.

As a web programmer do I need to learn any more languages to enhance my career? I work in a .NET environment and am good at C#, but have zero skill in VB. For client side scripting I use javascript, jQuery and PrototypeJS. Should I learn any more languages or do you think that what I know is enough for web programming?

I am in a partnership with someone. We are currently planning a system that can either use ASP.NET MVC or PHP With //Insert your framework here//. At this stage I can't say to much. Now the thing is I have a bit of experience with C# and MVC. I understand the concepts and actually wrote a fully functional blog with it. Now the other side of me wants to take PHP for a test drive. Will I waste my time? How good will ASP.NET MVC scale against PHP? I have to say that I love visual studio and the integration of MVC tools like quickly adding a view and a controller... Everything fits nicely. But the learning curve was quite steep and still is. I haven't really touched AJAX and Jquery yet but how easy is it to use it with ASP.NET MVC? I already googled and researched this but I want opinions of those who have been working with these technologies.

Yesterday my lecturer who's currently teaching us ASP.NET (more like flying through it) introduced us to LINQHowever he uses VB for the back end programming, and I just can't understand VB. I am more of a C# person, since my first real programming language was Java and that is close to C# than it is to VB.
Here is the code that we had to type in VB:

but I am rather confused about what to invest in. I heard that server-side code translates into client-side code. So, if you have an .aspx file, it will be converted to HTML/CSS/JavaScript. I have experience with the latter three technologies put into a rather dull text file and rendered by a web browser. My question is how much HTML/CSS/Javascript coding would I have to do when server-side programming? In other words, can someone using ASP.NET program purely on the server side and not bother to write for the client side? Of course, I don't care about server-side being translated into client-side, but I am wondering if client-side programming needs to be done explicitly and to what degree.

Here is the thing. I have an aspx page with NO master page. I have two resource files with the same name (and specifying the language) in the App_LocalResources folder. If I do something like text="<%$ Resources:lblUser %> works fine. What I do to test it is change the browser's selected language.
But, if I do the same in a MasterPage or in a Page that is inside a MasterPage... when changing the Browser's language and refreshing... I'm still getting the default language...
I've been reading some threads about this but the situation was a little bit different.

I'm creating a website that is going to be dual language, so it will have a german face and an english face and the user can swich between the two versions.
How do I do this in MVC?
should I have URIs like
www.mydomain.com/de/home/index
www.mydomain.com/en/home/index
if home is the controller and index is the action then what would the de/en be?
In my site should I have two versions of all controllers and views? one for german and one for english?

I am creating an authentication service. This service has one of the methods to validate username and password and return a status based on it.
The validation method has bunch of things to check before it can say user is valid. This method has a pseudo code similar to this:
If UserName and Password is correct
If User Account is Locked (due to invalid attempts)
{[code]....
As you can see there are lots of if else statements that I am writing. It looks more like a procedural programming rather than object oriented.How can I fit such kind of code in object oriented pattern?

I'm building my first enterprise grade solution (at least I'm attempting to make it enterprise grade).I'm trying to follow best practice design patterns but am starting to worry that I might be going too far with abstraction.
I'm trying to build my asp.net webforms (in C#) app as an n-tier application.I've created a Data Access Layer using an XSD strongly-typed dataset that interfaces with a SQL server backend.I access the DAL through some Business Layer Objects that I've created on a 1:1 basis to the datatables in the dataset(eg, a UsersBLL class for the Users datatable in the dataset).I'm doing checks inside the BLL to make sure that data passed to DAL is following the business rules of the application.That's all well and good.Where I'm getting stuck though is the point at which I connect the BLL to the presentation layer.For example, my UsersBLL class deals mostly with whole datatables,as it's interfacing with the DAL.Should I now create a separate "User" (Singular) class that maps out the properties of a single user,rather than multiple users?This way I don't have to do any searching through datatables in the presentation layer,as I could use the properties created in the User class.Or would it be better to somehow try to handle this inside the UsersBLL?
below is the code from the UsersBLL:
using System;
using System.Data;
using PedChallenge.DAL.PedDataSetTableAdapters;

in my asp.net application. I want to insert the student registration entry through my web form. but want to use proper object oriented method. like by create the object as "Student" it will have required property. and want to insert new node with incremental (auto increment) Student ID. I am using c#. how can i achieve this? will Linq is best way to do this?

At work I need to create a new web application, that will connect to an MySql Database.
(So far I only have expercience with Linq-To-Sql classes and MSSQL servers.)
My superior tells me to use the entity framework (he probably refers to Linq-To-Entity) and provide everything as a service based architecture. Unfortunately nobody at work has experience with that framework nor with a real nice server oriented architecture. This speficic project I'm leading will be long-term, meaning multiple years, so it would be best to design it the way, that multiple target plattforms like asp.net, c# wpf, ... could use it)For now, the main target plattform is ASP.net
So I do have the following questions:
1) Where can I read best what's really behind service oriented architecture (but for now beginner tutorials work fine as well) and how to use it in best practise?
2) So far I can't see a real difference between Linq-To-Sql classes and the information I've googled so far on the 'entity framework'. So, whats the difference? Where do I find nice tutorials for it?
3) Is there any difference in the entity framework regarding the database server (MSSQL or MySQL)? If not, does that mean that code snipperts I will stumble across will word database independent?
