Hi,

In Visual Studio, I have various items in my error list such as:

• Error    20    File 'images/myIcon16.gif' was not found.   

Actually, that path is correct - the error doesnt stop my project from building, but it is annoying me, and I want to hide these kind of errors from the list. How can I choose what to show/hide in the errors list?

Ta

Chris.

You should include the image file into your project as a content file.

From the blog post: http://neilkilbride.blogspot.com/2007/10/visual-studio-error-list-html-errors.html.

 Nothing annoys me more on a Friday afternoon than the Visual Studio Error List rearring its ugly head and popping up with errors (often irrelevant ones) about the HTML markup.

So after playing about with settings and poking around the interweb I found you can either just close all the HTML (or aspx) files you are working on (as it only critises open document's markup) or you can tell Visual Studio to ignore the errors by unchecking:

Tools > Options > Text Editor > HTML > Validation > Show errors

Please, no comments about using the correct validation target, actually fixing the errors or conforming to how Visual Studio wants me to do everything - it's my party and I'll do what I want :P
