find - control

why is it that if you put a text box in a panel or something the web pages
looses its mind and it locate it, and you can't use intellisense, and you
have to use "findControl"? and guess at it.

If i can guess at it, why can't VS?

Is this just an unfinished product?

First, what product are you referring to? VS Web Express, Visual Studio?

It depends upon which container you place the textbox. For example, if you
place a textbox into an itemtemplate then of course intellisense won't work
since the container will repeat N times.

If you give us an example of how you're adding it, that can help us identify
if there is a problem or what steps to use to get it to recognize it.

Also, when you're working in VS.Net 2005 and you add an item in HTML view,
you have to switch to designer view before it gets added to the designers
control list and is accessible by intellisense.
