changing code on the fly

[joeSmacko]

Hi all

Im not a PHP programmer but im pretty sure it allows you to change a PHP file and then when the webserver requests the page again, your code changes are reflected.

Doesnt seem to be the case with ASP.NET. For some reason, I need to recompile into a DLL and upload again to the web server.

Is there a way that i can modify my source files on my webserver and have the changes reflected instantly like PHP?

thank you.

if you only modify ur controls and html content for your aspx file, u won't need to re-compile.

if you modify anything with code-behind files, you will need to re-compile.

PHP is a scripting language, ASP.NET is not, so you can't expect'em behavior alike.

.Net 2.0 allows for you to do this.

.Net 2 eh?

Is there a special name for it that I can do a search to find out more about it?

Asp.net and Atlas.asp.net

Good luck :)
