Trying to upgrade previous straight HTML page site with ASP.aspx (Matrix)
pages and they do not appear in the preview/preview browser. Is there a plug
in for them (ASP.aspx) to work. Normal ASP.asp non Matrix pages work OK.

The problem is usually that the ASP.NET code doesn't run in preview mode.
(Neither does legacy ASP code.)

To get the ASP.NET code to run, you have to browse the page from IIS (i.e.
from a server-based Web site, Preview In Browser).
