Hi Guys,
We're looking into migrating an existing ASP.NET application into DW. Most of the site will be developed using DW technologies (Designs and Layouts, XSLT, Razor and Custom Modules etc) but for one section of the site we're considering migrating the current ASP.NET web forms into DW by converting the forms into web user controls.
I've read Imar Spaanjaars blog about doing this and I've used user controls in DW on a number of projects in the past so I'm familiar with the way user controls works in DW.
My question is are there any gotchas that you guys are aware of when moving an entire ASP.Net application into DW via web user controls such as controls that don't work properly (UpdatePanel perhaps?) or view state issue?
The existing application is as far as I can tell standard ASP.NET. It uses master pages so we'd need to create an alternative to this such as having a master user control that loads in other user controls to make up the page.
If anyone has got experience of doing something like this I'd be really interested to hear your thoughts.
Cheers,
Alec
