My Visual Studio 2005 program doesn't open CSS files properly - when I open them in VS, it opens them as a text file. It is annoying because if I do something wrong, it doesn't show up the error and I have to sift through it all to try and find out what is wrong. Plus it doesn't show up the hints for the attributes.
View 5 RepliesI know I've seen this in one of the video tutorials but I have no idea which one and I have reinstalled VS since then. I think it was Chris Pels that showed how to set up VS so that you had IntelliSense for XML files. The reason I ask is because I'm going through the Security tutorials series and working on the web.config file and the editor doesn't highlight the closing or opening tag when you click on one or the other like it does for HTML or C#.
Not sure if I'm explaining this clearly or not. When working with HTML or C# I can click on the opening tag for an element, say a div tag and VS will bold the type of the closing div tag. This makes it easy to be sure that I'm not messing up my tags. Well this doesn't happen with an XML document. I saw in one of the videos where the author configured the settings in VS so that IntelliSense would work in an XML document. I just don't remember the path to those settings or what changes were made.
is it possible to open aspx files directly by clicking on them like html files without from within visual studio or visual web dev?

View 1 RepliesI've inherited a bunch of code that has server script inside of .htm files.
On IIS, a handler mapping pumps.Htm pages though the asp.net engine.

Is there any way to make VS treat .Htm files as code/aspx files?
What's the easiest way to delete all the files from my Temporary ASP.NET files in .NET 4.0 on my development box? It seems like I have to shutdown Visual Studio 2010, stop IIS, and then it will let me. Is there a simpler way?
View 1 RepliesI have a VS2010 project that I want to move back and forth between an x86 and an x64 machine. On the x86 machine, several assemblies are located in Program Files, and the path of the assemblies are shown as c:Program Files...... When I move this project to the x64 machine, the same assemblies are located in C:Program Files (x86).... Is there a way that I can confugure VS2010 so I don't have to manually change the path when I move the project from one machine to another?

View 3 RepliesI have a problem within a project in Visual Web Developer. The program will not allow me to open the aspx.vb file associated with an aspx file when I choose the "View Code" option. The aspx.vb file exists; however the program is prevented from loading it and seeing it in Solutions Explorer.
The problem may be related to how the entire project is loaded -- loading it as a project vs. as a website. When I load it as a project, I have compilation errors that do not exist otherwise, but can see the aspx.vb files. When it is loaded as a website, I can't open the aspx.vb files as described above.
i write and my page loads it find. When i click on the link instead of having the image show on screen it promps me to download it. Why? How can i make it display in the browser? gif and jpg both display in the browser.-edit- i am using FireFox 3.5 there is no code that serves it, its just a link and the file exist in my folder. The link is like http://localhost:1737/a/b/file.png. IE 8 displays the png w/o making me download. I havent tried with other browsers but surely i click on direct png link in firefox on every site mine (in VS) should act the same.

View 1 RepliesI have a problem in which some nested controls on a page are not updated in the designer file. I have deleted the designer file, selected Convert to Web Application, but still the controls are missing.
I know there is a supposed fix at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdevtools/archive/2010/03/05/hotfix-for-issue-with-auto-generated-designer-files-not-adding-controls.aspxI am running VS 2010 Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel.
I'm doing something wrong, but for the life of me can't figure out what. (Maybe it's all the beta software I'm using to build this website ;-) )I'm trying to use the Facebook helpers, which use the WebMatrix.Data and WebMatrix.WebData libraries. These work fine from my class files, but apparently I can't use them in my .cshtml files.Anybody run into this? Alle references to classes in these libraries break my site (not my build btw?). And yes, they are referenced.
View 6 RepliesI have a couple files that are missing after a I publish a web application project in VS 2008. I know that the files need to be included in the solution and they are. I have tried excluding them and including them to hopefully reset whatever is missing these files in the first plac but that had no effect.
Ultimately, I need this to work on the command line with msbuild.exe, but I get the same results when I publish through VS.
Knowing that the files are already included in the project, what else do I need to do to get these to files to be copied over in the publish/build?
How do i disable the creation of .bak files in visual studio 2008 for my asp.net application?
View 2 RepliesI use asp.net with code behind and c#.
So I have two file for every .aspx page in VS 2010.

How to do it in file .aspx? #region seems working only in .cs file. organize better my code both for .aspx and .cs file? Do you know the keyboard shortcuts to expand or collapse all my region in my code?
I am having difficulty using C in the VS IDE. No matter what I write the code always has errors and I am not able to see the end result. I don't understand VS and being that I am supposed to be taking Programming in C as a class, it is hard for me to get my work done because I don't understand VS and I really don't know how to match the two up.

View 1 RepliesI installed Windows 7 a few days ago and everything seemed to install fine. I opened up a rather large project I've been working on and opened up my dataset file. I created a new table in SQL Server 2005 and so in turn I created a new tableadapter. It went through the steps to create the tableadapter fine but when I tried to finish it, it took FOREVER to finally refresh. The table is small, about 6 fields with no data, and I waited 20 minutes at least for Visual Studio to finally respond again. Now I've tried to save my work and it's hung up again. I've been waiting another 20 minutes at least just for VS to save the file. Is there some known issue with datasets and Windows 7? This didn't happen in XP and I simply can't be waiting for an hour to simply add a table adapter and save the file.

View 3 Replieshave been using the Publish Web Site option VS 2005, and all of a sudden it quick working correctly and do not get an error message. Also, compiling the web site does not take as long as it did before. Now Pubish Web site only puts the bin folder and PrecompileApp.config file in the C:InetpubwwwrootOIAEmailMaint. Because I am working and testing this website sometimes I delete any previous files that was in the folder C:InetpubwwwrootOIAEmailMaint before Publish Web Site. I did notice when I was looking at the files I delete in the Recycle Bin that a app_offline.htm. Apparently I changed some kind of option by accident by I do not have a clue what.
