migrating issues regarding css, js and other common files.

Hi,

im currently running a web site with php, after looking at vs2008 quick development, and good tools/coding for css and js i decided to conver my site to asp.net c#. i planed first conver some part of web site to asp.net so files on server are as below

example.com\php\files (only php pages are here)

example.com\common\ (css, js, and other common files are here)

example.com\aspnet\ (asp.net files are here)

aspnet folder is main project folder for aspnet pages, this means css, js files are out side the project folder, thats why visual studio do not allow me to use its tools for css. and do not recognize path. how can i solve this problem.

i also want to know, in vs 2008 there are tools to manage css, Manage Styles, Apply Styles and CSS Properties which are realy very helpful for quick development, but these are not available in vs2010. what is story behind this.

thanks in advance.

Re: migrating issues regarding css, js and other common files.

You can link to those "common" files by using the full URL: http://example.com/common/css/style.css in your asp.net app.

The Apply and Manage styles is available in 2010 by going here in VS: Toolbar>View>Manage Styles or Toolbar>View>Apply Styles. They willl show up on the left column of VS2010.
