Hi flux64, welcome to the forums, posting-wise

Do you have any experience with Visual Basic, C++, C#, or NET?

I only have a bit of VB myself, but if you take a look here you'll get a rough idea of what you're up against http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc301369.aspx

And I think you'll have a better chance of finding help in the .NET forum http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=141

Moved to the .NET board.

Hi
What do you need to change?

[flux64]

i just need to change some links on the homepage. i have no experiance of visual basic.

when i click on the homepage to check the source it shows in html but when i look at it via ftp it is a aspx page with maybe 20 lines of code which i dont understand

[fredda]

Could you post the code here (all the code in the .aspx file)?

[flux64]

here is the code for the homepage

using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.IO;

public partial class Default2 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Request.QueryString["restart"] != null)
{
ApplicationStuff.Application_End(Application);
ApplicationStuff.Application_Start(Application);
}

if (Request.QueryString["rabbit"] != null)
{
Session["rabbit"] = true;
}

Session["showMe"] = true;

try
{
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(Server.MapPath(".") + "/middle.htm");
String description = sr.ReadToEnd();
litContent.Text = description;
sr.Close();
sr.Dispose();
sr = null;
}
catch
{
}
}

} // End of class

[Mittineague]

Can you find the middle.htm file at whatever the "Server.MapPath" is?
If so, is that the one with the links you want to change in it?

[fredda]

If it is the description you need to change then yes have a look in middle.htm. Else we still need to see the code from your .aspx-file (you posted the code-behind code).

[flux64]

i've just checked the middle.htm code and it is just css styling code, any other idea's guys

also this is the code for the aspx file

<&#37;@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="Default2" Title="Untitled Page" %>
<%@ Register Src="uc_right.ascx" TagName="uc_right" TagPrefix="uc1" %>
<asp:Content ID="mainContent" ContentPlaceHolderID="container" Runat="Server">

<asp:Literal ID="litContent" runat="server"></asp:Literal>

</asp:Content>

[fredda]

Yes, check MasterPage.master and uc_right.ascx (or post the code here).

[flux64]

finally got it sorted last night.

could not of done it without the help
