Microsoft has a new website editing tool: WebMatrix. WebMatrix uses the new Web Pages engine in which Razor is the view engine; Razor is also the new view engine for MVC3. I am attempting to find out if it is possible to register and use a different view engine in Web Pages (like you can in MVC).Does anyone know if it is possible to add or replace the view engine in Web Pages? If so has anyone documented this? Examples?
View 2 RepliesI have done some refactoring on a asp.net mvc application already deployed to a live web site. Among the refactoring was moving functionality to a new controller, causing some urls to change. Shortly after the various search engine robots start hammering the old urls.What is the right way to handle this in general?
Ignore it? In time the SEs should find out that they get nothing but 400 from the old urls.Block old urls with robots.txt?Continue to catch the old urls, then redirect to new ones? Users navigating the site would never get the redirection as the urls are updated through-out the new version of the site. I see it as garbage code - unless it could be handled by some fancy routing?Other?
I am in need of applying the skins and themes in asp.net to my asp.net mvc2 applicatoin too. however i need to figure out the best way to apply the theme and skins in the mvc framework.
kindly suggest me the folder structure and how to apply them to different views. even though the css can do all stylings, i would like to get an insight into using these.
When i'm trying to debug or view pages of my site in browser asp.net dev server doesn't turns on pages automatically and when im trying to go by url it throws me an error See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

How do you implement SquishIt to bundle Css/Js across View Pages and Render it in the Master page? I thought I could use a ContentPlaceHolder above the Render portion, but there seems to be some odd behavior where it sometimes adds 3 files (1 in the view page and 2 in the master page) but other times will ignore the file added from the View Page.
Index.aspx
<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="CssFiles" runat="server">
<% CssHelper.Add("home.css"); %>
</asp:Content>
Site.master
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="CssFiles" runat="server" />
<% CssHelper.Add("reset.css"); %>
<% CssHelper.Add("master.css"); %>
<%=CssHelper.Render() %>
My current solution is a Static wrapper around SquishIt's static Bundle class that keeps the BundleBuilder in HttpContext.Current.Items.
I'm curious if this has been done successfully and how so.
I seem to be having an issue with our meta-tags as they are not being picked up by search engines. It has nothing to do with the fact that I don't know how to create them, but I think it has to do with the way we need to set up our site with our hosting company. Our hosting company requires that we have a page called Default.asp with a script that forwards requests to default.aspx which is currently set up as follows:
[Code]....
The Default.aspx page uses a master page. Our meta-tag is currently setup to index the default.asp page, but not to index or follow any other pages on the site. I also have a robot.txt file that states not index or follow any of the pages within the web site. Do I have the meta-tags in the wrong place? Should they be in the Default.aspx page or on the master page instead? If so, how do I format my tags, as if I just copy and paste them, get all sorts of issues.
Whats the best recommended way yo hide my staging website from search engines, i Googled it and found some says that i should put a metatag, and some said that i should put a text file inside my website directory, i want to know the standard way.
my current website is in asp.net, while i believe that it must be a common way for any website whatever its programming language.
I have recently adapted a project and I would like some help with the problem. I have a textbox on a webpage. When someone enters a string and submits the page, I want to search search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc and display the results according to relevance from the various search engines.
I have currently looked into the httpwebrequest and related classes. Also, I am new to ASP.NET, 17, and want to do this as a school project.
Still new. What can I add to my site to get picked up by serch engines without paying for services? Right now if I do a search My site does not appear.

I have a button that adds a product to my shopping basket. it has a postbackurl="../shoppingbasket.aspx?productID=1" when the page is loaded I get the querystring (ProductID) and add it to my database. Well I have been watching the database and I can see that in 1 day the whole of my product range has been added to the shopping basket, not only that but every time it fires the event it creates a NEW basket thus messing up my shopping basket ID's.
So my question is, I want the search engines to index my product pages, BUT I do not want then to add to my basket ( i.e. firing the postbackurl ) I have tried may things like rel="nofollow" adding the URL to my robot.txt. I don't really want to use recaptha as I have do before and have many complaits about it.
I am using asp.net 2010, and I would like to know how can I go about completely hiding a particular page from search engines, similar to how Facebook's security settings are set (for example, if I search for my real name, my fb page will now show up in google).

We've got old ASP.NET Forms pages and new MVC views and partials views in the same solution. Some pages on the site are MVC, and legacy pages are Forms. One of these legacy Forms pages is an .ascx control. Is there any way for me to insert an MVC partial view (.ascx) into this Forms .ascx control?

I don't know if this is a basic question or not as I'm brand new to master pages.
I am using VS2010 and an automatically generated asp.net (C#) website. It created the site.master for me which I then edited to give the look for my site.
For some reason I can't drag and drop controls from the toolbox onto each of my content pages. I know I can add them in code but they then don't get added to the designer.cs file and of course if I add them manually they'll get overwritten at the next build.
As I say, I don't know if this is normal behaviour or not but I need to know how to add controls to my automatically generated ContentPlaceHolder with it's associated aspx file with Content tags.
I developed a simple application running in IIS 6 under an http protocol. for the security purposes our company provide a certificate unfortunately my application is not functioning in https. i can still access it in http...
View 8 RepliesI'm using a hosting service and I tried putting the default pages (that you get when you make a new website in web developer) onto the hosting service. But they only show up "normally" when I change the extension to html. if it's .aspx it just shows the code.
Question is how can I view the aspx file in the browser from the website normally without using "View in Browser" in that popup menu in Visual Studio Web Developer? And side note I can't use IIS (don't know if that's important but other places talked about it)
I'm using forms authentication in my C# based web site, with the authentication defined in web.config files in the various folders/sub-folders. I want to write a generic administration menu system, that lists all of the admin pages that the use is authorized to open. As I add pages, I want them to automatically show up in the menu. I need to obtain a list/collection of all pages that the active user is authorized to open. Is this possible in ASP.Net 3.5?
View 2 RepliesWhat I want is that I can add /edit or delete view pages. I don't want a complex content management system , just looking for any examples where one can add simple view page, I have no idea how to add action result dynamically, programatically on a controller page in mvc2.
View 5 RepliesI have hosted my project in the remote server. i pasted all the dlls & all the necessary files into inetpub->wwwroot ->httpdocs->(pasted all files). In the server we have .net framework 3.5 and IIS 6.0
Now I just want to check whether my files are running locally on the server. So I did the following. Just opened the IIS, made the httpdocs folder as a virtual directory. And then I clicked the httpdocs.It displayed all the files it has in the right side pane. Then I right clicked the default.aspx and then I clicked browse. Now the browser opened with the URL http://localhost/httpdocs/default.aspx. But I could not able to see the aspx page.It just shows "The page is not found"
But when I tried the same steps for opening a .html page it works fine (http://localhost/httpdocs/test.html) I can able to view the html pages.
Whether I need to configure anything on the IIS.... What should I do to view the .aspx files
I'm currently using ASP.NET MVC 2 and the spark view engine. The main master page (application.spark) contains all of the CSS link tags that need to be present for all pages (global stuff). However, I have some content pages that have page specific CSS tags and currently I'm just sticking the link tag in the body as something like:
<content name="MainContent">
<!-- page specific csss -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/Content/css/page_specific.css" />
My problem is that when the page renders, this tag ends up in the which is not where it needs to be. Is there a solution for this?
I had was to check the controller in the Application.spark page and write out which page specific css file is required for that particular controller, however, that solution doesn't seem to scale well and I would imagine there is some way of creating the link in the child page and having it render where it's supposed to by the browser.
I have a problem while printing rdlc report (local). The number of pages of the report in viewer is fewer than that in the print. This leads to a problem while printing the report from - to a particular page. For eg: The report viewer shows 9 pages while viewing but when I go for print it prints 14 pages. The data is not lost but records from page 1 are transfered to page 2 while printing.

View 1 RepliesIf I drag a control from the toolbox in Visual Studio (2008+SP1) into an ASPX page I get a proposal for an ID: <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" /> That's nice and helps not to forget to assign an ID. Most of the time I rename the ID like: <asp:Button ID="MySpecialButtonForSpecialTask1" runat="server" Text="Button" />
Now I have a task 2 (3, 4, ..., n) and need a button "MySpecialButtonForSpecialTask2". So I copy and paste the first one with ID="MySpecialButtonForSpecialTask1". That's the result: <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" /> That's not nice since I need to change now "Button1" to "MySpecialButtonForSpecialTask2" but I would prefer to change "MySpecialButtonForSpecialTask1" to "MySpecialButtonForSpecialTask2". Is there any setting or trick in VS to prevent assigning new IDs after copy and paste?
I'm not looking for the option "Tools > Options > Text Editor > HTML> Miscellaneous > Auto ID elements on paste in Source view" since it also turns off creating IDs for controls inserted from the toolbox. I only would like to switch off this when copy & paste.
