Can ASP.NET apps be created using notepad ?
I supposed the file needs to be compiled into .aspx extension but don't know
how to go about doing it.

Any suggestion ?
 
Kim,

Often unknown by people who never saw Visual.Studio Net.

You can create ASP.Net application using notepad. The style of writing those
is much different from making ASPNET pages with DLL's.

When you see the documentation on MSDN it is almost forever for ASPNET
without compiled DLL's (however easy to translate for the ones who know the
DLL version)

This is a very good site to learn ASPNET using Notepad.
http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/

A good newsgroup for ASPNET without compiled DLL's is
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet

When you are using VBNet than I know that as well the newsgroup
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb can be good when it is more about the
compiled versions (you saw I wrote as well).

(You need by the way an IIS server which has the framework loaded for this)

I hope this helps?

You may want to use WebMatrix. It is free and has a few more features than
notepad. It has a page designer which while not great is better than typing
into notepad and then adjusting.

It is available at http://www.asp.net/Default.aspx?tabindex=0&tabid=1

This page also has a link to download the Visual Web Developer Express which
would use V2.0 of dot.net. While it may be a while before it goes
production it has many new features that make creating ASP.NET sites much
easier.

I readed in another newsgroup that it will be cheap, however not be free.
