I'm starting to learn ASP.NET and it's the little things that are really annoying with Visual Studio Web Dev Express. I keep getting the error "Content Not Supposed To Be Outside 'Script' or 'asp:Content' Regions" - so I put content inside an asp:content
container and it doesn't disappear. I also get the same sort of error with declaring the DocType. Any suggestions to fix this. Also on an off-note: is there any better IDE's to code ASP.NET?
