Was referring to using the HTML view just for your Editor, Designer gives you the drag/drop, properites, event wiring etc etc.. But Notepad wouldn't give you these anyways.. It's a good HTML editor in the IDE with those options Changes below.

Not a huge deal. I like to preserve what I actually TYPE.. -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Hector [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 12:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DOTNET] Stop VS.NET mucking with my HTML In ASP.NET I need to set the TITLE text of the HEAD element at runtime, so I have added the following: <title runat="server" id="titleElement">here</title> and I have hooked up an HtmlGenericControl to do the runtime setting, which works great. However, in a disturbing throwback to MS Frontpage (eek!) days I find that VS.NET HTML editor likes to delete the 'runat=server' bit when I save the page, because presumably it thinks I typed it in error. Any workarounds, or is it time to reconsider notepad as the html editor of choice :( Kevin Hector _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
