I was recently looking at a page about transitioning from ASP 3.0 to
ASP.NET. (The page I was looking at is located at
http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/041601-1.shtml ). It looks to me like
they are taking away what has always seemed to me like the beauty of ASP. I
always viewed the beauty of ASP as giving you the ability to fill in the
dynamic areas without the need to change your HTML layout techniques. But
ASP.NET seems to be trying to make you replace all HTML elements with
ASP.NET code. For example, on the page I mentioned, notice how ASP.NET code
is used to create the submit button even though the submit button does not
have any dynamic areas. Also, when initially designing a page, I have always
preferred to create it with HTML to make it look the way I want and then
replace the dynamic areas with ASP. And just out of curiosity, for anyone
who might know, will the "View Source" look the same? Because this is one of
the primary tools to make sure the code is producing what I want, I need
this to look the same as it would using ASP. Does anyone else have an
opinion on whether ASP.NET is really better? Even though I have not yet
learned much about coding in ASP.NET, what I have seen makes me lean towards
ASP 3.0.
