From zero to ASP. Best way to do it?

[ukpsmith]

Please spare me a moment to give me some advice.

What would be the best way to go from zero programming knowledge to ASP.net programming. What to learn and in what order.

Also would it be a good idea to learn asp before learning ASP.net

Hopefully this is not a bunch of stupid questions

If they are tell me, That would be still teaching me something.

The best way would be to get a beginners book IMO. No, I would not recommend learning ASP before ASP.NET since the .NET version is so different. Just jump straight in to ASP.NET

Also, realize that ASP.Net isn't really a language, it's a deployment mechanism. You do your coding in any .NET language, and select to use the ASP.NET widgets instead of the application widgets. As a result, you really need to learn HTML, and a language such as VB.NET, C#.NET, etc.
