Visual WebDev 2005 - Doesn't syntax highlight between <% %> tags
Is this a normal thing for the new .Net versions?
I use those tags a lot when placing one liners into an ASP page
ie <%=rs("data")%>
Is there a way to enable syntax highlighting in these regions?
When I change the <% tags to <script ...> tags it works fine.
Hop over to the
http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback and see if maybe there is already a bug or suggestion reported on this matter. If not you can go ahead and make a suggestion or report it as a bug.
To me I would imagine that maybe Microsoft wants developers to only use <% %> for extremely small code snippets or Data Binding code and mark actual code blocks as <Script>. Of course if you asked me again I would tell you that mixing markup langauge with code is asking for maintability nightmare as your website grows.
