Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Just ensure that the web-host you are using supports ASP.NET. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 ...why? That's only useful if you actually create any ASP.NET software... Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Can you two please translate it to something a 12-year-old can understand? And keep in mind, I'm no Vista?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Basically, a question for livewrong: Are you using VWD to create ASP.NET pages (ie: Web Form template) and writing C# code within - or using it as a WYSIWYG editor for HTML (ie: HTML Page template)?

livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I think that I'm doing the first one, but I haven't really started in earnest yet, so I can't be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Don't know yet, can you recommend a cheap, reliable one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Here is evidence that it requires ASP.NET (even though wikipedia has no guarentee). Visual Web Developer ExpressThe Visual Web Developer Express is a freeware web development tool that allows developers to evaluate the web development and editing capabilities of the other Visual Studio 2008 editions at no charge. Its main function is to create ASP.NET websites and Web project model (like in ASP.NET 1.1) is not supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Ahh, now it's coming together! It makes sense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Although if all your website has is text, some hyperlinks, and CSS - (ie: No Code) - it should be quite simple to convert it to a HTML site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 No need to convert, just create all the files as .htm or .html in the first place. Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Umm, which is better, ASP.NET, or HTML? Or, which is more common, or which do you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Basically, what does your website consist of? [*:2ymt38x9]Databases?[*:2ymt38x9]Functionality (ie: C#/VB Code)?[*:2ymt38x9]Simple Formatting? It is very hard to find a host for ASP.NET and HTML is very simple. Most professional Web 2.0 sites use PHP AFAIK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Well, for my website, I'm planning to have it be a website for both me and my friend, and we'll run it together. It'll be kind of like a blog and a gallery, in one. He would post links programs that he made (most likely hosted on MediaFire), and maybe talk about his addiction to Maplestory (an MMORPG), and I would post my graphics (hosted on PhotoBucket, so as not to take up space on my site--Is that possible?), and maybe some other useful snippets. It's kind of meant to be a learning experience. Nothing too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Ryan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I would recommend finding a web host that supports Databases and PHP, then download and install software such as Word Press and phpGallery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 When you are writing your blog and uploading your photos. Have you created a system on that site that allows you to upload them without editing the pages (ie: From a database) or will you simply edit the pages to write an entry?

MattBlackLamb Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 One.com Seem to be pretty good, I'm planning on using them when my site is finished.

Simon Brown Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 By the way, before you say anything - look closer. It is ASP they support, not ASP.NET. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livewrong811 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Yeah, MBL, I think I saw one of their ads in this month's PC World magazine. Edit: I think I'm gonna ask my dad about all of this when he gets home, he probably knows what's best for me, and can help me figure it out. But, thanks for all your help, guys.

Rick Brewster Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I was going to get a MacBook. Probably a refurb one since they are $200 off.

Mike Ryan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 What!? Is it because of the software? If so, I highly recommend OSX86. If the hardware, then go with a MacBook Pro, all of the features of the stupid Air except it has more than a USB port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I don't want to buy a Sony or Dell or HP because the computers come with 5000 programs and stickers and it's ridiculous. They need 8 tray icons just to enable all the hardware functionality. The MacBook just kinda works. I wasn't going to get an Air, just the regular MacBook with 13.3", 2.4ghz, 2gb RAM, 160gb HD. It wouldn't be my primary machine. Oh and it's a business expense, and thus tax deductible Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
