[RESOLVED] VS 2008 Design mode problem

[motil]

Hey guys,

I have this problem with the design mode in visual studio.


If I create asp:table and drag to one of its cells a button for example (or any other control) when i double click on it the IDE is not creating the basic click handle function, if i drag the same control to the source code but without tablecell warping it i does create the click event handle, any ideas of how to fix it ?

It's possible that this could happen if the rest of the page's markup is not well formed, the VS designer can be quite picky about these things. You could try to right click the button, properties, lightning icon, find the event you want, double click it.

Thanks Mendhak, i still have a lot to learn about the designer

Hey,

I find that the best way to learn how to use the IDE, is to watch videos of someone as they are producing code, you pick up lots of great tricks. There is a full set of videos here, that might be of interest to you:

Hope that helps.

I'll also add that you should try using the markup editor more. You'll get much more proficient at HTML+ASPX faster instead of having to rely on drag-drop.
