I am currently creating a compile on demand asp.net application because I need to query a database and return only an xml string using Response.Write, but visual studio wont colour or give me intellisense in a .aspx file that doesn't have code behind

I assume there is no way to make it do that, but I would like to know for sure. The documentation for asp.net shows how to make compile on demand apps but it appears that visual studio doesn't cater for people who write this kind of code

Am I correct? If not, how do I do it?
 
When you are writing code Intellisense is not supported for what is called
Single-File Web Forms Pages. See:

Additionaly note that you can use code behind and response.write. Just
delete the whole HTML code (and not the directive).
