I have VS 2003 and have always used VB.NET. I have now been asked to build a few web pages in ASP.NET/VB.NET.
Can anyone tell me how I can find out what version of ASP.NET? I've done the usual things but I can't seem to find the version number. Doh! :blush:
Any help appriciated :)
Maybe this can help : http://www.asp.net/faq/SideBySide.aspx#3
TSAR, thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately, the link deals with the version of .NET Framework. I want to find out the particular version of ASP.NET that I have. I'm assuming it is ASP.NET version 1 but I want to be sure :)
I've tried the Help > About but I can't see it there... Where else should I look?
Any further ideas?
ASP.NET version is irrelevant. The .NET Framework version is the only thing that matters. The framework controls all aspects of .NET.
Ah! Ok...
The reason I ask is that I want to develop a template driven website. I've found an article on MasterPages where a User Control is used to divide the web page into a consistent format. The article I have read (or partly read) mentions the version of ASP.NET. For example, MasterPages don't work very well in ASP.NET version 1.x but have better support in version 2.0.
Here is the link:http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/040704-1.aspx
From what you have said then, version 1.x referrers to the framework installed, is that correct? :)
.Net 2.0 is not in final release, so no web applications should be put into production that use it - AND FURTHERMORE, you all have to wait until I learn it so I can get more money$$$
Interestingly though, I have read that by using this procedure you can easily upgrade your work to .NET 2.0. With very little effort.
Hhmm, we'll see... :)
I have been running ASP.NET 2.0 Beta on my own development web server for quite some time now.
An easy way to find out what version you're running is to cause an exception to be thrown. For example:
VB Code:
Your version number will be displayed at the bottom of the page.
Also, if you go into Control Panel, and into Administrative Tools, you'll see icons for the 1.0 Framework and 1.1 Framework... if you see the 1.1 icons, you're probably using the 1.1 Framework :)
:) Hhmm nice one, thanks :thumb:
