Rahul,
Are those line breaks for real? I don't think you can have line breaks like
that in script blocks unless you use the line continuation character
(underscore).
I have been using template columns without any of the problems you
described. However, if you insert a new server control in HTML mode, you
have to switch to design mode and save the aspx to be able to get the
corresponding declaration in the codebehind inserted automatically for you.
But I have had the ASPX page *disappear* without any reason more than once.
Don't know why, but VS.Net just zaps my work and shows a blank ASPX page
sometimes. Thank goodness for source safe.
