|
| Only support ASP.net and nothing that requires the FP extensions, so that leaves out FP and VS.NET
| users.

| | Have you tried Cassini? I think it's just for asp.net stuff, and localhost only since there's no
| security. I haven't p layed with it...just curious.
|
|
| | | Would you look up the word 'choice' in the dictionary Murray?
| | It would also be refreshing for a change if knowledgeable
| | people stopped insulting the intelligence of others asking for help.
| | Thos people asking for help may be ignorant and bereft of knowledge
| | but that does not neccessarily mean they are stupid and want to stay
| | that way.
| |
| | Would you know if Cassini requires a registry hack? It would likely
| | provide another alternative.
