the best source for learning ASP.NET is
http://asp.net/ASP.NET is simple to learn as there are ready built components for almost all the tasks. All you need to do is get the required component and code the action that is need to be preformed on that component. You can enter most of the component properties from the properties dialog box. If you've the basic understanding of Object Oriented programming, then it will be very easier to learn.
Unlike PHP where we hard code for all tasks, ASP.NET provides a set of pre-built components and a huge number of other third-party components that can perform the task. At most of the cases the programmer needs to code only for the actions to be taken and the programing logic. You need not code for any components unless you are required a custom component.
If you are an expert in PHP, then you can code ASP.NET sites using PHP insted of C# or VB.NET.
