I found there are not any controls for tabpage in ASP.NET 2.0. Well, we can use multiviews with menu. Each item in the menu has the name of views. Finally, we catch MenuItemClick event and set activeindex based on MenuEventArgs Text. Yes , we do like that. But I don't recommend this method. Firstly, this is not programming effect. I needs to two control and a new event catch. Moreover, a postback is triggered.

I suggested to use the classic way, javascript and div to do the tagpage. This is no postback caused. This is very easy, Let's this good "how-to" example for show & hidden div, fromwith Imagination.

I am testing web reference function of Turbo C#. That is alright. All I need to do, entering the WSDL url, like the image following:

IDE will generate all mapping objects. That's good.

I have not visited Mono Project Page for ages. I found it supports .Net 2.0 too.

I have a quick look on Turbo C# and SharpDevelop. Turbo C# has stronger functions on web application development. I test SharpDevelop 2.0. SharpDevelop has only limited functions on web application development. It seems to aim at a code editor for ASP.Net. But Turbo C# has a complete Rapid development interface for ASP.Net. Moreover, they have some debug function. You need to click "play", then the application will be launched. That 's simple and easy.

Well, SharpDevelop is a open source tool. I am still very happy about its functions. Moreover, it supports .Net 2.0.

Firstly, I need to state I am a big friend of Turbo C 2.0. That is the major reason, I test Turbo C#.

Tonight, I finally installed the Turbo C#. Everything is smooth.
Finally, I loaded the new IDE, looks like this :



My computer is P3 3Ghz. The load time is not too bad, around 10 seconds.
