Basic 'setup' help needed... can't run the simplest test

dalin12 · Nov 4, 2004

Hello all...

apologies for the terribly simplistic request, but i cant for the life of me figure out why my simple 'hello world' .aspx file wont give me any results...

the page loads, but the c# portion simply isnt displayed...

here is the code in its entirety:
-----------------------------------------
<script language="c#" runat="server">
void Page_Load()
{
time.Text=DateTime.Now.Hour.ToString();
}
</script>

<html>
<head>
<title>Web Server Time</title>
</head>

<body>
The time is currently:
<asp:label id="time" runat="server" />
</body>
</html>
-----------------------------------------

when i launch the page, i get the "The time is currently" portion, but no actual time is displayed...

i've installed the .net redistributable, and the SDK (in that order)... ive got permissions all setup as well...

am i missing something here?

please let me know what other information i can provide...

thanks!
steve

your code looks fine. Make sure you have named the file correctly (filename.aspx). Try adding some other code, like
Response.Write("Some text");
within Page_Load, to see if it is executed at all.
And make sure that u request the page properly. Dont open it from the file menu, but type in the proper url (should be something like

http://localhost/directory/filename.aspx)
