what is happening is when i do something in design like adding text, set style, drag the table width etc etc its fine will run without issues- but when i switch to source after i changed something and then back to design the app itself seems to **** itself up someway or the other as my tags magically gets broken. i'm not running anything other than vs, so no enhancements like resharper...

...strange thing is only my vs2005 does this, i can't seem to replicate this exact error in vs2008-

any ideas ?

Stop using design view and only use the HTML view? :p

Seriously, I can't stand working in design view. You've got much more control over what you want to in HTML view. A tip for formatting your markup (if you didn't know it already): CTRL+K+D

heh.... NOTEPAD for real men :p
 
that is your problem necuno, the designer for vs.net is **** totally ****. It doesnt stick to strict specifications, rather write it in the code view like he said. The bug was most likely fixed in 2008. There are alot of issues that i had with 2005 , i am currently using 2010 now.. which is nice.

true. just i have to make it in 2005- so i'll do the page in 2008 and paste it to 2005 ;)

Is the problem that when you create new controls the designer file is not being updated - i.e.: if you create a new control on your aspx page, the code-behind doesn't pick it up?
what happens exactly is; that i have a layout and then when i for example just type the letter X in a table cell- switch over to source and back its broken, it becomes a tag hell.
 
A - VS2005 and tables don't mix well. To be honest, web design and tables don't mix well! Try using DIVs for your layout... ;)

true, but sometimes a table is better than a grid; can't really do those in a div- but i know what you mean though.

i'm getting this kind of error again now, in vs2009 when i change something either in source or designer and switch from source to design and back (or press save button) it adds 3x  

Code:
<label class="BlueHeading">Contact Person(s) :</label>
                    
                    [COLOR="Blue"]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;[/COLOR]<br />

in same places. nothing weird on the page iether. then when i remove them and do the switch or change + save it re-adds them exactly where they was.

sorry i dont get your joke?

VisualStudio2010CTP.vhd <-- vs.net 2010.

It wasn't a joke, he was being sarcastic. Clearly he isn't aware that 2010 beta is available. Ismail_TM always posts crap like this, just ignore him
 
I think FarligOpptreden was talking to me :D

Anyway it might be a bug if that link is what you are getting?

its not corrupting just adding those damned spaces. the aspx it self is only 500lines.
