Well, here's the background. I'm coming from the world of ColdFusion, where
page layout was an entirely manual process. Now I'm looking at .NET for the
first time. I have a great background in OOP, dhtml, css, etc. But not
..NET.
I'm tasked with revamping some very primitive looking ASP.NET 2.0 pages.
This is a drag'n'dropped website. There are a couple of images to break
things up, I guess. But bottomline, it looks like frontpage collided with
clipart.
As a newbie, I'm not sure which direction to go with it. Should I skip
Microsoft's controls or try to customize them for a better look and feel?
Can they be customized with impunity? For example, if a form was submitted
with an error, can I beautify the error message on a layer, with a graphical
element, some context sensitive help retrieved from a database, and some
dhtml thrown in for kicks? I know I could do this just scripting. But are
the form controls this versatile?
Does anyone use ASP just as a scripting language?
Thanks
