Re: .aspx not working
 
what script did you run?
Are you getting a Blank page or an Error Page?

Can you show us your script?

I copied and pasted into a text document and saved it as a.aspx on my computer and it works fine. if you are getting a blank screen, try right clicking and hitting view source to see if you can get any information that way.

Just a quick question aarya where did you save this file? In a virtual directory in your IIS wwwroot folder? AS you can't save this to just anywhere and have it work like a standard HTML file. You need to place it in a virtual directory.

If you don't know how to setup a virtual "web" directory let me know.

To make this work you need to do the follow.

1. Create a Folder under your IIS directory (the default directory format that IIS installs to is C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\)
2. Open Administrative tools (Start Menu --> Control Panel --> Administrative Tools)
3. Expand the Website branch to open up the IIS folder structure. Keep drilling down till you see your newly created folder.
4. Right Click your folder, and select Properties
5. In the properties window, and on the Directory Tab there is a section called application settings and a button called create. Click the CREATE button and then click OK.
6. Create your aspx file with this calendar control in the code (as you have already done), save it to the new folder you just created and then open the file by typing in the browers address bar (or even the start menu --> run command) http://localhost/your directory name you just created/then the name of the aspx file name & extension Voila!

Hope this helps!

Hi Aarya,

Here u have to consider the difference between ASP and ASP.Net

ASP is just a scritping language where as ASP.Net is a language.

ASP pages are ineterpreted at rumtime. But, ASP.Net pages are compiled into MSIL at the compile time. When the request hits that page then MS Jitter generates the machine specific code.

Here, in your code you are using the ASP.Net server control calander.So, the code must be compiled first before u run it.

Thanks,
Kedar

Re: .aspx not working
 
after you downloaded and installed the 1.1 framework, did you register asp.net in iis?
