Web Application Compatibility Issue?

[Razanust]

I am developing a web application in ASP.NET using Visual Studio 2008. I am developing it in .NET framework 3.5. Now is it necessary for the users to have .NET framework 3.5 installed on their systems?

In the server where you are deploying your ASP.NET application .NET framework 3.5 is required. But for the client which are using your application they only need a web-browser (Like IE, Firefox).

WWW, WCF, WWF, WPF, WFC .... WTF

Yes! Must be install .Net Framework3.5.

My vote of 1! That's an incorrect answer. Client does not need .net framework 3.5 (or any .net framework for that matter) for asp.net application. The code is processed on the server and the ASP.NET engine produces an equivalent HTML which is rendered to the client. So the client only needs a browser that will display the html (and make http requests to the server).
