Can You Create a Banner Ad Using Visual Studio 2010?
I was interested in creating a banner ad. I understand that you need an HTML editor. I have no familiarity with this at all. I was looking in Visual Studio and see under Add New Item if you click on Web you can add an HTML page. Should I perhaps create a new project as an ASP.NET Web Application and then add a HTML page. Would I be able to go that route and create a banner ad and publish it to my website.
I tried doing this and using Web Deploy while doing a Publish. I had a successful Publish but when I navigated to the URL I just saw a blank page.
If this isn't the route you should go and you should instead use an independent HTML editor is there one that you could recommend?

Hello,
Can you be clear about what you mean be a banner ad, as there are a number of different interpretations of this. Depending on the answer to the above, the AdRotator control, in conjunction with an AJAX UpdatePanel, might be the only thing that you need.
Now, to speak to the question about including HTML pages within your ASP.Net application, then this is perfectly doable, and assuming that the HTML page is included in the published package, then browsing to the HTML page should work in exactly the same way as a navigation to an ASPX page.
