I have given up on the Microsoft-supplied tutorial for the book "Teach yourself ASP.NET in 21 days" - I am on day one, example 1.2. However, the first example, which is supposed to print one line of text(!) doesn't work on my machines.
I run the code I created (or the sample provided) and get the following error:
********************
Line 4
Char 8
Error: Expected ';'
Code 0
URL: http://localhost/day1/exercise1.aspx
********************
Here's the code:
********************
< % ERROR: @ Page Language="VB" % >
<script runat="server">
sub Page_Load(obj as object, E as eventargs)
lblMessage.Text = "This is my first exercise!"
end sub
</script>
<html><body>
<asp:Label id="lblMessage" runat="server"/>
</body></html>
***************************There MUST be something wrong with my setup....I have the exact same problem on my desktop & laptop machines (each with their own copy of IIS, .NET) so I'm completely stumped!
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
