My Problem
In Microsoft Visual Web Developer Express 2010, my intellisense suddenly stopped working today for my front end HTML (.aspx) files but is still working fine for code behind (.cs) files.
Along with this, when I hover over any asp control declared in my aspx pages, it says
validation(): Element 'control' is not supported.
validation(): Element 'label' is not supported.
etc...
(side note: 'control' and 'label' are lowercase in the message, instead of the proper case)
My Progress
I have been looking around for answers,
- a few people suggested deleting certain files, such as the "*.ncb", but I have not been able to find any MS files with this extention anywhere (hidden files are visible).
- I have a "Web Site", not a "Project" so within my site there are no *.sln", *.proj, *.suo" files to delete either.
- One suggestion was to "Clean" my project, but I can't find that option anywhere.
- Another person suggestion running "MS Developer command prompt" and executing a utility called "devenv" with certain arguments. I do not have the "MS Developer command prompt", I assume because I am using the Express Edition. I cannot find the devenv utility in my file system as well.
- I have checked all my master pages but haven't noticed anything weird.
- I looked in the Tools > Options menu but didn't find any "intellisense" type of thing anywhere. My "Show all settings" is turned on.
- I tried changing the doc type in the dropdown from XHTML 1.0 Transitional to all the other things just to see, with no luck.
My Plea to fellow .Net-ers
My website builds just fine with no errors, it's just having no intellisense on my aspx pages is driving me nuts.
Is there anything else I can try? Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks!
