Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "We are just calling the GetAllProducts() method, which has all data access code wrapped in a different class named DAL."

A block of code will be set as follows:

<asp:Repeater ID="prodRepeater" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
Product Code: <%# Eval("Code")%>
<br>
Name: <%# Eval("Name")%>
<br>
Unit Price: $<%# Eval("UnitPrice")%>
<br>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

New terms and important words are introduced in a bold-type font. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in our text like this: "In the Internet Explorer, we can change the default language by going to Internet Options and clicking the Language button under the General tab."
