getting started with asp.net
Hi All,
Im just getting started with asp.net, haven't got a clue. I've been reading tutorials exctra. Which tend to give code examples but not example how build a project. for example the code below i know it works, so i create a new asp project and put the code in the webform code page. What i get is problems, with putting html in asp page. Never used to be a problem. How are we meant to layout code should html be put somewhere different. In short i need a little help with using the software, not writing the code.
any help would be appreciated.
