The ASP.NET Web.config File Demystified

Excellent article for beginners. Very comprehensive yet very to-the-point!!

This article was really good… it gave most of the necessary information about web.config… excellent one

Really excellent article … easy and straightforward, but the brackets in ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings(“sqlConn”) … aren’t they square brackets?

Article is good

good one!!

good one and helpfull!!

Helpful

nice

<customerrors>

A nice overview, but lacks any real depth for real world application.

AppSettings is a collection, not a method.

Change:

ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings(“sqlConn”)

To:

ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings[“sqlConn”]

i xml and .net

I wonder why this article isn’t changed based upon the comment of: Sage Aug 19th, 2008 @ 8:00 PM EDT
or was this incorrect?

@very-old-timer, @Sage: ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings(“sqlConn”) is the VB.NET syntax. The author just forgot to state that he was using VB.NET and not C#

Perfect article for the beginners,as it covers most of the topics in simple language.
