Asp.net 2.0 and c# 3.0?

We use asp.net where I work and we are using c# as the language. Will c# 3.0 work with asp.net 2.0? Ive been trying to pick up some books on c#, but not sure which I should be buying, any help would be greatly appreciated!

ASP.NET hasn't seen major changes since version 2.0 (a full list can be seen here). Some large changes are coming near the end of this year with both ASP.NET 4.0, and .NET framework 4.0.

The language C#, however, has developed vastly over the years. In its current version (C# 3.0) the language has lots of features which will benefit you. It can be used to target the latest version of the .NET framework (3.5), or any earlier version you choose.

I would recommend books on ASP.NET 2.0, C# 3.0, and the .NET framework 3.5.

I think the correct answer to this question also answers your question:

Upgrade to ASP.NET 3.x

Essentially, you set-up IIS to asp.net 2.0 for both 2.0 and 3.5 sites, as they both run on the same CLR.

You bet.

Here is a book I would highly recommend:

Yep, ASP.NET is a web application technology (as opposed to a language), and you can use any .NET language to back it. ASP.NET 2.0 and C# 3.0 play quite nicely together.
