Create a dynamic slide show with ASP.NET and Active Slideshow Pro
I was asked to write this tutorial after posting some code on how to get active slide show to work with asp.net. Actually it is easier then you would expect. In the following tutorial I’ll explain on a step by step basis the approach. I haven’t seen a cooler slide show, except for the slide show on an apple Macintosh, which looks exactly the same as Active Slide Show Pro (and also uses the same Ken Burns effects). But the benefit of Active Slide Show Pro is that you can use it on your website and let the whole world enjoy your slideshows. Feel free to ask any questions if you cannot get things to work.
Requirements for this tutorial.
I think anybody who is interested in this tutorial should have some knowledge of asp.net and also knows how to add data to a database and how to retrieve data from a database. So we start out with the basis of a website that already has images with their name in a table of the database.
In this sample I used:
. Asp.net 2.0 in combination with SQL server
. Dreamweaver MX or newer
. Active Slide Show Pro (ASSP)
On the matter of asp.net 2.0 or 1.1 there are not that many differences. For SQL server, or MYSQL, or Access there are quite some differences and if needed just post a question and I’ll do my best to answer a.s.a.p.
