Visual C# and ASP.NET and XP Home

[Guest]

Hi there,

I am wondering if anybody knows about a work around (if any?) creating an
ASP.NET web project from VS .net under XP Home Edition?

I know there is no IIS under XP home, but is there any way to replace IIS
with another web service ( like the one in web matrix) to be able to develop
apps in VS .NET under XP Home?

It doesn't matter of course if the page can not be accessed remotely, but
locally for testing the page.

Thanks

Mike

Mono (a .net clone) works with Apache (a free web server).

Check out Web Matrix...
http://www.asp.net/webmatrix/default.aspx?tabIndex=4&tabId=46

It's free and it has it's own built in web server to act as the asp.net
host, so you don't need to have IIS installed...
