Moving ASP to ASP.net

Hey all,

I'm a complete dynamic language newb so please speak slowly

Are there any pitfalls to migrating a site from ASP to ASP.net? such as, can parts of ASP work with ASP.net? can you use ASP in a separate folder to the rest of the ASP.net?

Thanks for your help

 

The only thing I can think of that is a downfall from moving from ASP to ASP.NET is the html markup might not be as clean/easily modifiable when rendered. With ASP you can say literally what you want to say but when using some of the ASP.NET components... this is not always the case. Other than this - i'd say 100% go for it - ASP.NET is the BoMb!!! and you won't regret it. Once you learn that you can just plop a few controls on the page, then code it all with the backend... you'll fall in love

 

The main downfall for me would be that although I think I'm a pretty experienced web programmer in ASP, when I look at a sample of ASP.NET I haven't a clue what it's about.

 

Hello,

I do not think so any problem in moving from asp to asp.net....

 

I haven't read any of these, but they seem like they might be worth your while:
