Acknowledgments

Our thanks go to all those people within and outside of Microsoft who have, not only for this book but over the years, provided so much support and assistance. We are proud to have been able to work with Scott Guthrie, the father of ASP, as he and his team have taken this technology from a page template-based scripting language into the comprehensive and efficient development language it is today. Our thanks also go, of course, to the entire editorial, production, marketing, and sales teams at Addison-Wesley. We offer a special thanks to Appan Annamalai, who contributed much of the material on localization for Chapter 14 of this book.
