First of all, if ASP.net similar to PHP? Is it just the microsoft equivalent? I've not heard of it until recently...

I've seen a few web dev jobs lately and many are asking for ASP.net skills.

Now, I'm ok in PHP, so would I be able to pick up ASP if it's similar?

Also, is there a good exercise or type of website to code in order to see if my skills are up to scratch? Most of my experience comes from modifying existing code such as OScommerce... I was thinking of building an example site so I'd have something to stick on my CV to show employers... I already have hosting, I just need some ideas. :)
 
Cheers, I think I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and give it a try. Is there a 30 day trail of Visual Studio and will it run on a virtual machine OK? AT least then I know what I'm letting myself in for. I've done Java in the past, and wasn't very keen on it...

One job I've seen is asking for skills in PHP, ASP.net, SQL as well as graphic design skills in flash or photoshop, so I'm not really sure how much depth will be needed...
