I'm using asp.net and I need to build an application where we can easily create forms without recreating the database, and preferably without changing the create/read/update/delete queries. The goal is to allow customers to create their own forms with dropdowns, textboxes, checkboxes, even many-to-one relationship to another simple form (that's stretching it). The user does not have to be able to create the forms themselves, but I don't want to be adding tables, fields, queries, web page, etc. each time a new form is requested/modified.
1) How do I structure a flexible database to do this (in SQL Server)? I can think of two ways: a) Create a table for each datatype (int, varchar(x), smalldatetime, bit, etc). This would be very difficult to create the adequate queries. b) Create the form table with lots of extra fields and various datatypes in case the user needs 5 integers or 5 date fields. This seems the easiest, but is probably pretty inefficient use of space.
2) How do I build the forms? I thought about creating an xml sheet that had the validations, data type, control to display, etc. as a list. Then I would parse through the xml to build the form on the fly. Probably using css to do the layout (that would have to be manual, which is ok). Is there a better/best way? Is there something out there that I could look at to get ideas?
Is there a way to make the design view in VS2005 to show the CSS changes. Currently when I look at it it is default and not taking into consideration the CSS content.

I have an web based application. The content for the Home page has been currently mentioned in the HTML code for the Home page using , and tags. To change the content anytime in future, it needs to be changed in the HTML code.
Is there a way that we can pick up the content from some external place and get it reflected through the website. This ways, any change if required can be made at the external location without referring to the application's code.
I'm currently messing around in Access to develop a website, or I should say - develop the initial workings of a database system in an environment that I am familiar with. As the .Net environment is the one I am most familiar with for developing, deploying the Access database into the more full-fledged SQL Server environment is a natural step. Now comes the part with ASP.Net that I'm not so familiar with - reconciliating differences between how I am coding and designing my database with the default website project that ASP.Net provides for a basic multi-user website, from which I've noticed is a lot more thorough than any solution I could code up within a reasonable time-frame.
However, this comes at a cost. I have no inkling on how user data is stored within this environment or how to extend it within my own needs. I can make sample data up the wazoo on my laptop, but if I have no idea how to incorporate with a pre-existing framework, it is worthless to me. The reason why I have not considered this until now is the data I have been working on doesn't pertain to the users in a direct fashion. Anyone have experience designing websites that use ASP.Net and maintain user access? What problems, issues, and design considerations might I need to concern myself when developing a multi-user website with ASP.Net in addition to my data?
I am trying to design a website in asp.net (just learning) and am having trouble positioning div's on the .aspx page.
I normally design in dreamweaver where you can move the div around freely and it sets the x and y coordinates for you but I am having trouble positioning an image.
Do you have to type the x and y coordinates in yourself in the code behind or in the css or is there an easier way where you can freely move the image around and it sets the coordinates.

I installed Visual Studio 2008 in my machine. Both c# and vb.net are working properly, but my problem is asp.net is not working. If we are taking a new website project there is no design mode in default.aspx means at the bottom there is no design, source, split. If we go to View->Design then one error message is popup that there is no editor available for this Default.aspx. Again in Tools->Options->Html Designer will shows that an error occurred loading this property page. My OS is Windows Xp Professional 2002, IIS is also checked on .I don't know what to do.....
I am trying to make a website in C# ASP.NET. I have been given some code as well as visual studio 2010. The code I was given was written in ASP.NET 4.0, so I obviously want to code in that, but my web hosting only supports ASP.NET 2.0. If I upgrade to 4.0 what's the difference as far as compatibility issues with all browsers, or any draw backs to using 4.0. I am using 1&1 hosting so it is a pretty commercial hosting, maybe there is a reason why they do not have 4.0 standard on their servers?
I'm planning on making a website and host it on my dedicated server.but I would also like the website to be available when the dedicated server (from here on revered to as server) is offline for what reason that maybe.How would I go about doing this? the server would get the domain name from my webserver. I already set up the DNS's to do so, but incase the server cannot be contacted I would like the webserver to take over or something?
