Microsoft aren't adding extensions to + and -, either. That doesn't mean you shouldn't use them. Linq to SQL is part of the language and the Framework, and will remain so, and it's much nicer to use in certain circumstances than the equivalent code with DbAdapters and DataSets. It's absolutely fine to use it even if it's not getting extended in future (which is a big step away from 'completely abandoned'). EF is massive overkill for a lot of applications, particularly if you already have a database and can't use its magic wand to match everything up.

I thought [^] as the samething as ( ) to put around the code. In the future, I use will ( ) to put around my code.

If so, can you explain how this would occur and point me to a reference that would explain this process? Use client validation script of custom validator and enable Client side validation. If you are validating at server side also, Do have a check property Page.Isvalid before doing any operation. This property will return true only if all validators is passed else it will return true. For details about asp.net validators, you can have a look to one of my post Exploring ASP.NET Validators Cheers!! Brij Microsoft MVP ASP.NET/IIS Visit my Blog: http://brijbhushan.net

Just put a label on top of it, which is just span tags

Hi So Rpt is your solution name right.When u rename ur file to Atts.aspx the codebhind=CodeBehind="Atts.aspx.cs" . You had wrongly declared in Inherits="Rpt.WebForm3" it must be Inherits="Rpt.Atts". While renaming the file the Visual studio on changes the Codebehind and not the Inherits part. So we need to check. Thanks S.Guhnananth

I answered this in your previous post below. Hope you are sorted otherwise just give a shout! Morgs

Hi, It looks to me that you admit when you drag and drop controls from design view onto your page out of HUMAN ERROR you are dropping the controls onto a wrong place/point/spot! YEs i hear you there, you can make such a mistake which as you mentioned is messing with your entire layout. Again you mentioned that if you do the same process in source view you are dropping the controls at the right spot, that's it! you are going to start using source view to design your web pages/forms because that's what is easier for you, and for most of us i guess... Besides there's a 50% chance that the page design you see in design view won't be the page design you will see when opened in a webbrowser(i.e IE or firefox). In my projects i use source view to create my design and a browser to see my work done so far, i don't remember using design view. ..And like Mark mentioned, try and avoid tables to design your pages. This is old and designers have decided to leave tables alone only if you really need it then you can use tables otherwise try the magic and power of DIV (page division), this element shipped with CSS[^] can start and finish a page design :) Happy coding, Morgs

for java script you can use the debugger keyword. i.e. debugger: for CSS and HTML you can check with number of add on from IE and FF (Mozilla). they are very help full to check the CSS and HTML of your page. if you don't know about add on, just search in google. you will get everything.

What application are you using view/edit the files? You can use Visual Studio, even the free We Developer edition. Master pages have the extension .master and can be opened and viewed as any other file in Visual Studio, or even Notepad No comment

3. It depends what the control is. If it is not a custom control then you can only step through it so far. You can review it with tools such as Reflector. 2. By code I'll assume you mean markup. The masterpage will contain content placeholder controls with IDs. These IDs will correspond to the ContentPlaceHolderID attribute Content controls on the implementation page. 1. Look at the masterpage and see what control is being used and how it is configured No comment

I hope this helps Asp Tut's[] I Used this to make the switch Frazzle the name say's it all
