unable to run asp.net web applications

[vishalmarya]

I am vb 6 programmer and new to web applications
i downloaded asp web matrix

1. Should i use asp web matrix or
vs.net for creating professional web applications

2. when i select asp.net web application in vs.net

it says

" Visual studio.net has detected that the specific web server is not running ap.net version 1.1 . U will be unable to run asp.net web applications or services."

Thanks

1. For professional apps, I would use VS.NET.

2. Make sure the .NET framework is installed on the server.

1. I agree with Memnoch.
2. In command prompt, navigate to the .NET Framework folder and run this:

aspnet_regiis /i

I got that running .
can't i produce a message box on a click of a button in a asp web form ( web page ).

it says " it is invalid to show a modal dialog or form when application is not running in user interactive mode "

No, there are many differences you need to learn when it comes to web programming. The very first is, the web is stateless.

This means there is a distinction between codebehind and client-side script.

There is a way to show a dialog in an ASP.NET page, like this:

Page.RegisterStartupScript("script1","alert('hello world');");

[vishalmarya]

Page.RegisterStartupScript("script1","alert('hello world');");

is this vb script or C sharp

I've written it in C#, but it's the same in VB.NET, minus the semi-colon.
