IE8 - The developers best friend

Tue, 03/11/2008 - 08:52 | Robert MacLean

There are a few good reasons to use IE 8 as a developer but yesterday I found my new favorite. When using Visual Studio 2008 and running the site a new section appears in the solution explorer called Script Documents. In this little gem of a folder is the pages you are looking at, the scripts etc... all as the server provided them to the browser! Meaning if you open the .aspx page there is no ASP controls, just normal HTML. If you do inserts of JavaScript via OnInit, that is there as well. Amazing!
