| Part 3: Your first
ASP.NET page
Now that your system is set up lets create a simple test ASP.NET
page. Go to your “Documents” tab on the web site properties
page and move “Default.aspx” to the top of the “Default
Documents” list.
Next, open Notepad, create a document and save it to your web
root ( e.g. “C:\Inetpub\C Sharp”) called “Default.aspx”.
We will start working in Visual Studio in the next lesson. Don’t
forget, to select the “All Files” option in the “Save
As Type” pull-down menu. If you save the document with
the “Text Documents (*.txt)” option selected it will
save the file as “Default.aspx.txt” which is a txt
document.
Now enter…
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<html>
<head><title>C# Test</title>
<body><p>Test<br>
<% Response.Write("Hello World, my first ASP.NET page");
%>
</P>
</body>
</html>
Now open a browser and go to http://localhost/
If you have forgotten a curly brace, left off the semicolon
or made some other mistake you will see that the error pages
have gotten a lot better and more descriptive. If you have not
made a mistake, experiment by messing up your code. One interesting
feature is that ASP .NET produces different, more detailed error
messages when you are browsing from the host then on a remote
client.
