Editing Basics

Microsoft® Visual InterDev™ application development is centered on creating Web pages. To help you, Visual InterDev provides a rich set of tools for editing and scripting HTML pages (.htm files ) and Active Server Pages (.asp files).

Your primary tool is a Web page editor. You can work with Web pages using a number of editors, depending on your preference and what you are doing with the Web page. The default editor is the Visual InterDev HTML editor, which allows you to work in Design view to see your page as it will look in a browser. Alternatively, you can work in Source view, which allows you to work with the "raw" HTML text and objects on your pages.
