When I try to get the intellisense for membership provider,I can only get upto the following in VS2005

<membership defaultProvider="SqlMembershipProvider" >
    <providers>
      <add name="SqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" />
  </provider>
</membeship>

i.e. I am only able to get the name and type attributes only.Nothing like requiresQuestionAndAnswer, requiresUniqueEmai,passwordFormat, maxInvalidPasswordAttempts,minRequiredPasswordLength,minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters,etc

Everything was working fine 1 day back.

 

 

 

 

            
 

 You will need to contact Microsoft Support:

http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/?ws=support

and request the hotfix

There is no place where I can contact the support.I can only search for an answer to this problem if this problem existed.I have done what was proposed in a similar lookalike problem mentioned here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911718/en-us.Moreover I have done already what was said by Scott Gu's blog's.

 

Any help?

I just create a new website.I go directly to web.config.I try to add membership.Well,I don't get any intellisense. Does it makes sense?

 

 

Hi,

The IntelliSense of web.config in Visual Studio 2005 depends on the DotNetConfig.xsd from "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Xml\Schemas\". You can modify this XSD file to add or remove the IntelliSense on web.config.

In your case, you can add the attribute (such as "requiresQuestionAndAnswer") to Membership's add section. For example:

 <xs:attribute name ="requiresQuestionAndAnswer" type="xs:boolean" use="optional"  ></xs:attribute>

You also can write these attributes in web.config file directly without using intelliSense.

For more information about add Elements, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/whae3t94.aspx

 

I hope this helps. 

Although it was fixed somewhat I don't have any idea what was present in the original xsd.More importantly, how did this get screwed up^*....
Nice.Thanks anyway.
