I have Visual Studio 2010 (SP1, C#) installed at work and was looking through your book on Amazon's preview to see if it will meet my needs. I see in chapter 2 that you state that the book uses only "Web Site Projects" and not "Web Application Projects". However, when I start a new project in my VS installation, I have only various "application" projects available. There is no instance of a "Web site" project and I can't figure out how to install that template. Can you shed some light on this difficulty? You're book seems highly useful (and highly recommended) but I don't want to struggle with the differences in the middle of trying to learn the principles.

Thanks.

Hi there,

You create a new web site using File | New Website instead of File | New project. This is discussed in the book, but it may not be accessible in the Preview on Amazon.com.

Cheers,

Imar

Oh, I see that now. And the Amazon preview does say that, I just missed it in my skimming. I probably would have missed it in the real book too. Thanks for the quick reply!
