help 

Hi,

and welcome to the ASP.NET forums.

Did you build your project? If so, did you get errors? If not, can you provide a piece of code that doesn't work for you?

Grz, Kris. 

well what i would suggest is please check if your iis is working properly or not.

Type services.msc(in START->RUN) window and check the  IIS Admin.

see the status.it should be started.if it has stopped then restart or start the service.

if not please send the code show that i can check and let you know.

i think you know the process of compiling and executing in vs 2008.

 oh dear...i think i phrased my question wrongly...

sorry guys. my problem has nothing to do with wrong codes.

as we know, after typing codes, we press ctrl + F5 to view it in a browser, right ?

my teacher told me there might be configuration error, because press ctrl + F5, nothing happens. also, on the top, there is a sign that look like this > ... and its name is 'start'. for me, that is not highlighted (which it should be)

Hi,

I can see in your screenshot that no project is open. There's nothing in the solution explorer. Open a project or create a new one than you will be able to compile and run it.

Hope thie helps!

well is IIS(internet information services) installed in your system?

go to control panel,add and remove program (in the left hand side you will find add/remove windows components)

click on that.you will find a window.on that you will find IIS .see whether it is in checked condition or not.

if it is not in checked condition install it from your operating system CD/DVD
or download it and install.

if this is not the case then i think please follow the steps to create a project and execute

click file-project- console application or windows applications. in the program.cs write code and click.

does the debug arrow sign appear..

thanks for the replies...

yes, i have to install IIS

Hi,

perhaps you chose a different keyboard setting schema the first time after installation you opened Visual Studio. Open a project and press F5.

Also if you want to change your keyboard bindings, or check them, take a look at this article: Setting or looking up keyboard shortcuts in Visual Studio.

Grz, Kris.

Actually by default you don't need IIS. Visual Studio ships with its own webserver (Cassini). Open your project or website and take a look at the property pages to see if you are using that. It's the default setting so if you didn't play with those you should be covered.

Grz, Kris.

but one problem...i open a project, press F5, nothing happens...

i reinstalled it but it is useless. even my Visual Studio 2005 also have the same problem

Hi,

Perhaps a stupid thing but does your F5 key work? Test it in a browser and look if the page refreshes.

Otherwise check the keyboard bindings by checking the link I provided in my former reply.

Grz, Kris.

yes my F5 button works perfectly

thank you kris.
