I have converted a vs 2003 solution to 2005 and when I try to switch to
design mode for a user control I get:

Cannot switch views: Validation (Internet Explorer 6): Element 'Style'
cannot be nested within element 'div'

Here is the html:


<div style="z-index: 101; left: 1px; width: 541px; position: absolute; top:
1px;
height: 290px">
<xwavegrid:smartgrid id="SmartGrid1" runat="server" style="z-index: 100;
left: 0px;
position: absolute; top: 0px">
<FooterStyle Height="20px"></FooterStyle>
<Columns>
<xwavegrid:SmartGridColumn DataField="asdf" AllowClientUpdates="False"
Key="sadf" ReadOnly="True" ColumnType="Text" Render="True"
IncludeInTotals="False" MaxLength="50" Value="" PrimaryKey="False" Format=""
Title="Column 0" ClipContents="False" SortExpression="" Visible="True"
IsHyperlink="False" PersistClientUpdatesOnDataBind="False">
<Style Width="100px"></Style>
</xwavegrid:SmartGridColumn>
</Columns>

<CaptionStyle Width="100%" Height="20px"></CaptionStyle>

<HeaderStyle Height="20px"></HeaderStyle>

<PagerStyle Width="100%"></PagerStyle>
</xwavegrid:smartgrid>
</div>

As you can see this is a custom webcontrol within a div. The custom control
has nested controls which have styles. This doesn't seem to be allowed, any
help appreciated
 
No. this is not the problem

see if you have any other style tag

it must be in head section

for instance
<head>

<title>asdasd</title>

<style></style>

</head>
 
Thanks for your response

I have not added it to page, but I should still be able to switch to design
view.

No, all references are fine, the projects build and run fine, it is just
switching to design view?

Do you have XHTML enabled on the page. Look for DOCTYPE directive near top
of page and see if it mentions XHTML.
 
changing the doc type to an older version is a good work around for
converted projects
