Product Page From Database

[johntwebb]

Okay, I'm new here and to programming in general. I don't want to waste a lot of your time as I know the question I have has probably been asked before. I'm just not sure what to search for. What I'm trying to do is create a site that displays a list of products from a database (which I know how to do) and when you click on the item it displays the product details (which is where I'm stuck). I've built a static html site at here so that you can get an idea of what I'm going for. As you can see there's quite an extensive description of the product which I haven't seen discussed how to create pulling from a database. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Like I said, I know this has probably been discussed, so all I'm asking for is a point in the right direction. I'm not sure what I should be searching for. Thanks for your help in advance. Also, I guess I should let you know that I know html and I know the basics of asp.net (c#). And I'm using Visual Studios 2008. Again Thank You.

Well you got the wrong forum on your first attempt, the ASP forum will give you better results. Here is a little Goole mojo[^] to get you started, the first result may be useful. There is a basic ASP tutorial around the demonstrates loading a grid and then using a details block to manage the CRUD on an item, that sounds like what you are after (sorry no link).

Sorry, I wasn't sure where to post since half of what I'm looking for is setting up the database for the product page and the other half is displaying it on the page. I looked at that link and I already know how to set that up. It's when links are clicked and I need a product page with 4-8 descriptions of the product that has me stumped. I guess I'll ask this over at the asp.net section. Thanks for your help.
