The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How can I stop ASP.NET rewriting/breaking my XHTML code?

Asked by Illarane in C# Programming Language, Programming for ASP.NET, Visual Studio

Tags: ,

Hiya,

I'm currently trying to port some legacy VBScript applications to C#, and I've discovered that ASP.NET rewrites my XHTML code so that is it displays correctly in various browsers.  Now, I find this slightly patronising, as my code already works correctly in everything from IE5 to Safari 3, and .NET is, in fact, breaking the output.

Is there any way to stop it doing this?  I'm using Visual Studio 2005, which I gather may be doing some things sneakily when I compile the code, though I've not managed to find any project preferences which allow me to disable this.

I understand why Microsoft have set  ASP.NET up to do this, but I would rather have control over the output of my own code, as I'm not particularly au fait with the idea that the interpreter is outputting code over which I have no control.  I've already added the <xhtmlConformance mode="Strict" /> to the web.config file, but this doesn't do much for correcting the output in browsers such as IE5.5 and 6, and Firefox occasionally gets a few odd things as well, breaking the XML parser, since XHTML is output as just that to the browsers which can accept it.

Thanks in advance,
