My .ascx file contains C# and HTML. Everything in VSCode is highlighting the syntax correctly up until it reaches <%-- insert dynamically generated text here --%>. After that, everything is white like text. All HTML/other code doesn't highlight and IntelliSense stops working. How do you stop VSC from doing this?
It looks like the default razor syntax included with the C#/Omnisharp plugin doesn't cover the older razor syntax that's used with WebForms, so it has no idea what to do when it comes across code nuggets.
The following extension can be installed to help add in support for WebForms' ASPX pages and older razor syntax.

I am using Kentico and have noticed a weird css issue. After mocking my pages up in Dreamweaver I then create the page in Kentico, however I have noticed that some elements in Kentico are slightly misaligned.
I have tried copying the source from Kentico into Dreamweaver to see if I can fix the issue but Kentico still renders the content incorrectly.
Are you using Dreamweaver in design or split mode? if yes, turn it off and use code mode only.
I guess you have to compare structure of your HTML and Kentico output HTML. Kentico add a form tag by default which may cause structural issue with css. If you can provide both html, I can help
On Kentico (up to version 11) when you use portal engine or ASPX templates you have this shortcoming. Kentico adds excessive HTML markup on the controls it creates on order to provide hooks that will help the engine to perform actions. For example, Bizforms add multiple divs/spans around normal input tags. So, you have to adapt the CSS you have created to match the tags used by Kentico.
What is your template type:
ASPX page: You can copy your entire HTML code from Dreamweaver into your aspx page template and then work on your page.
Portal Page: You need to understand the structure and cannot replace entire HTML Code from Dreamweaver. You have to seperate your HTML code to insert DropZone for web parts and widgets.
Good Luck!
You will have to make some adaptation always from raw HTML and kentico. In your case you are using aspx model which makes it more harder as server level changes are not 100% compatible with raw HTML or client side code. If possible use portal engine with transformation which will be more like to like of raw HTML.
You must create a directory in CSS/Stylesheet
If you're using the CSS section of the Admin interface, check to see if you have any & signs at the beginning of any tags. Kentico doesn't seem to support this so might be breaking any classes that appear after it.
Im using aptana to code with meteor on windows (it has nice ota SSH/FTP editing which is why I use it). But the <template> tags are a meteor feature so it spits out warnings when using them.
Is there a nicer editor for windows to handle my files with SSH/FTP? Or even better a way to to add <template> to aptana?
The warning is specifically:
Because templates encapsulate all the html, everything gets underlined!
If you go to Window > Preferences > Aptana Studio > Validation you can go through the various validators (HTML Syntax Validator and HTML Tidy Validator are probably the relevant ones for you).
Under HTML Tidy, you can clickdown 'Elements' and change 'Unrecognized elements' from 'Warning' to 'Info' or 'Ignore'.
In the HTML Syntax Validator you can add regular expressions for errors to be ignored like in this question.
Sublime Text 2 is a nice editor for Javascript code.
Although it doesn't come with FTP support by default, but you can configure it using instructions given here.
Hope it helps.
I'm really stuck. I'm working on an integration project where I'm creating a html fragment using ASP.NET. This fragment will be included as part of another site. The html fragment is created using a simple ASP.NET page with a minimal code behind file.
Te site that will include this html fragment is running PHP. The developer there is complaining that my code is sending the byte order mark as part of the html fragment and this is making his life difficult.
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 for development. I've saved the relevant aspx and aspx.cs files as UTF-8 without signature. However, this doesn't seem to have made a difference and now I'm pretty much out of ideas. The rest of the site is set to use UTF-8 as standard (defined in web.config).
Where should I be looking to alter the BOM behaviour for my aspx file?
If you save the file in Visual Studio I believe it will keep adding the BOM. You need to use a different editor to remove the marker such as NotePad++.
Actually in the advanced save as dialog in Visual Studio there is also an option to save UTF-8 without signature. Have you tried this?
It's confirmed in this question.
You can also use plain old NotePad to save with a different encoding.
Save As...Encoding DropDown.
I am creating a aspx page using visual studio 2008.
and linking it with a css via
but when i build it page opens with only html format and CSS look and feel is not applying
Please tell what can i do to make to correct.
But its working correct on IE...
Have you tried validating the resulting HTML page and the CSS file (HTML Validator) (CSS Validator)
If validating and resolving errors does not help, please post your HTML and CSS.
What are the ways by which we can reduce the size of the HTML Response sent by an asp.net application?
I am using Controls which are not owned by me and it produces output with white spaces. I am interested in Minifying the entire HTML output of the page just like how google does (View source www.google.com) to improve the timing.
Is there any Utility classes available for ASP.NET which can do this stuff for me?
There is no need to do it at run time. Because it can be done at compile time.
Details: http://omari-o.blogspot.com/2009/09/aspnet-white-space-cleaning-with-no.html
Try HTTP module as described here: http://madskristensen.net/post/a-whitespace-removal-http-module-for-aspnet-20
For Microsoft .NET platform there is a library called the WebMarkupMin, which produces the minification of HTML code. For each ASP.NET framework has its own module:
ASP.NET Core - WebMarkupMin.Web. Implemented as an HTTP module, so it can work with any framework. Suitable for use in the ASP.NET Web Pages framework (Razor).
ASP.NET MVC - WebMarkupMin.Mvc
ASP.NET Web Forms - WebMarkupMin.WebForms
Documentation is available at - http://webmarkupmin.codeplex.com/documentation
I want to comment on Thorn's suggestion (but I'm new to stack overflow).
The linked code (omari-o.blogspot.com) doesn't support MVC4, and although the code is open source it cannot easily be upgraded because of braking changes between MVC3 and MVC4.
There might be whitespaces written to the http result at runtime, only the developer of the actual site can know that. Thus static minification of template files (aspx) is not foolproof at all. Dynamic minification, which is suggested by gius, should be used to guarantee that whitespaces are removed correctly, and unfortunately this will incur a runtime computation cost. If code dynamically writes spaces to the output, it will have to be removed dynamically.
The accepted answer does not work with MVC 4, so here is a similar lib that minifies at build-time https://github.com/jitbit/HtmlOptimizerMvc4
Just adding another option I do not see listed here, which is the one I was recommended using:
Html minifier command line tool
Usage:
here and here
There is an issue, however, with this tool: it leaves single line (//) comments, and it causes problems for Razor parsing, since a single line comment placed within a C# block like the following:
#{
...
...
// anything
...
}
will cause the minification output rest of the line, from this point on, to be ignored by the Razor parser, which will thus raise an error stating there it could not find the closing "}" for the block.
My workaround for this issue was to completely removing these comments from the output.
This way it works.
To do that, simply remove the RegexOptions.SingleLine from line 145:
htmlContents = Regex.Replace(htmlContents, #"//(.*?)\r?\n", ""/*, RegexOptions.Singleline*/);
