Step 1. Evaluate the Web Site Structure and Documentation

Both PHP and ASP are server-side technologies and HTML, CSS and JavaScript are client-side technologies. Based on the lesson and your readings discuss the similarities and differences between client-side scripting and server-side programming. Remember that you need to put this in your own words and not copy from the text or other web sites.

This term the please compare and contrast the following:

DocType in the HTML page and the @Page declaration in the ASP page.

The tag in HTML and the tag

The tag in HTML and the tag

Step 2. Chapter 2 - Learning C#

You have already learned basic programming in one of the common programming languages such as Java. C# is very similar. What we would like you to do, is review Chapter 2. We know that you already know how to do this in another language. So, we don't need you to provide the definition. However, it would help to review how C# works. For example, Visual Basic, does not require a line termination character and does not use curly braces! So it's important to know the syntax of C#.

Create a short study guide. Provide snippets of code that show how you would accomplish these tasks in C#. Use your book as a reference but provide your own examples.

This term, all the examples should relate to "Cats".
