List number '3.' and '4.'

I believe that the sentences that start with "In the Code View of Default.aspx", the
"Default.aspx" should be "Default.aspx.vb" for #3, and "Default.aspx.cs" for #4.

Either that, or perhaps it could specify the code-behind page?

Step 5. Lines 4 & 5 of code sample

From printed June 2005 First Edition.

Sample code shows:
Handles rblMaritialStatus.SelectedIndexChanged
If rblMaritialStatus.SelectedValue = "Single" then
txtAge.Focus()

Should be:
Handles rblMaritalStatus.SelectedIndexChanged
If rblMaritalStatus.SelectedValue = "Single" then
txtAge.Focus()

Spelling error = rblMaritialStatus

First sentence

There is no code given for btnPostback button click on the default2.aspx page;
therefore when you click the button, an "Object reference not set to an instance of
an object." error is displayed.

Code sample in Example 2-4

The section of the code sample that describes how to use an image control for the
path-separator character in the SiteMapPath control is incorrect. The example code
encloses the asp:Image control in an <ItemTemplate> tag (inside the
<PathSeparatorTemplate> tag) -- this is not correct. The correct code should simply
enclose the asp:Image control directly inside the <PathSeparatorTemplate> tag.

Example 2.8

Would be helpful to add:
Imports System.IO
to top of code behind file

1st paragraph, under "Tip"

The Page_Load Event is missing the getFiles() sub, the code you provide only shows the folders, but not the files in the folders as depictes on page 87. Please send me the correct code for this example.

1st paragraph

Many of the pages refer to the Form_Load event instead of the Page_load event. This
is a minor mistake, but I thought that I would point it out.
