Can ID be used server-side in ASP? - ASP / Active Server Pages

Hello. I'm developing an ASP app and trying to make it XHTML strict. This
requires the removal of all "name" attributes from form elements. Can form
elements be read server-side in ASP with only an "id" attribute? Thanks.

No.
From the XHTML spec, the name attribute is only being deprecated for these
elements:
" ... a, applet, form, frame, iframe, img, and map ..."

None of these elements have values which would normally need to be read in
server-side form processing.

Thanks, Bob. I thought all "name" attributes were being done away with in
XHTML. Thanks for the clarification :)

Determining Charset used by system or software

by: Rémi | last post by:

Question: How can you determine the character set used by a webpage you built? My understanding of the issue is that the character set used by an HTML file (or any other file, for that matter) depends on your own system, and the encoding used by it; you cannot randomly insert a <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=xxx-1234-567">

Can a vb 2005 usercontrol be used in asp 2005?

by: billsahiker | last post by:

I saw one post here that basically said no way, but not sure which vs version was being discussed. Using vs 2005 I develped a user control in a vb project and would like to use that usercontrol in a web app, also developed with vs2005. I tried using @Reference and put the dll in the bin folder, and when that failed I created a Contols folder and put it there and still no luck. Intuitively it makes sense that this does not work, since vb...
