How to make master page???

[bloomlight]

I am trying to set up company's intranet. I got IIS installed on the system running OS of windows 2003 server.

How can I make the master page? And how to use the master page to my already created index.html file? I am new in ASP.NET area. And will appreciate it very much if you can help me. Thanks!

Are you using Visual Studio? If so, go to Add New Item and select Master Page.

You won't be able to use a .html file with a master page though, it will need to be an .aspx file.

No, I don't have Visual Studio. But I have Dreamweaver installed on my computer. Can I make master page by using Dreaamweaver? Do I need to install some application in order to make .aspx file? Thanks.

technically no, all you need is the .net framework and notepad and you can compile code, but and IDE makes this much easier.

if you cannot purchase visual studio 2008 use one of the express versions
either visual web developer express or visual c# express. You download and use for free. They are essentially striped down versions of visual studio.
