Reader Reviews
This is a very good introduction to DotNetNuke. It will help you install DNN on you own machine and guide you through building a simple website. If you know a little about programming in VB and know something about HTML and CSS, this book will show you how to write your own DNN modules and create your own DNN skins and containers. You won't learn how to write complex modules or elaborate skins but you'll learn the basics. If you already know how to install DNN and how to create DNN modules and skins, this book is not for you. If you know nothing about programming in VB and know nothing about HTML, then you should probably learn about them before you tackle this book. Comment | | (Report this)
