From reading the posts in this forum, this question should be a piece of cake for you guys!!

Plain and simple question and I've read so much and am having to learn so much my head hurts!! :) I am designing a dog registry website. I want to have my clients be able to fill out registration papers online and click submit and by some unknown miracle they come to me and I can send back their dogs registration papers....PLUS they can pay online.
WHAT program will do that the best for me? I am working with Frontpage and Expression Web. Expression Web has a asp.net option but doesn't seem to have the design capabilities I am looking for OR I just haven't figured it out yet. I KNOW I am in the land of the Giants....but I sure would appreciate some kindergarten help!! please...:)

Newbie.

Hi,

For .Net Platform vs.net 2008and sqlserver will do the trick. you can also do this is open Source languages (PHP with Mysql) etc. i personally suggest .NET for the web application. hope it helps.

For general advice on web application development in .NET, you might want to post to the asp.net forums over at http://forums.asp.net/as there are more folks with that interest over there.

There's a beginners set of getting started resources at http://www.asp.net/get-started/that will probably be useful too. For instance this video: http://www.asp.net/learn/3.5-videos/video-49.aspxmight help with your scenario in particular, and this page http://www.asp.net/downloads/essential/will let you know the essential tools for working with ASP.NET to build a web app. There are also some pre-canned app starter kits over there at http://www.asp.net/community/projects/which might kick start your project.

Hope that helps,

Mark
