Jacob mentioned a nice little free Add-In for VS2005/2008 yesterday while we we’re chatting on Messenger :-)
Short description: “The ASPX Edit Helper is an add-in for Visual Studio 2005 for those who like to type ASPX markup themselves instead of using the visual designer"
Usage:
Type <asp:Label and press Enter. The add-in will replace it with:
<asp:Label runat=”server” id=”asp_Label2943″ />
The add-in will also highlight the ID attribute value so you can immediately type a new ID for the control.
Very handy, thanks to Jacob for mentioning this – free download at: http://www.ardentdev.com/aspxedithelper
