    Default Using existing HTML

    When I create my new ASPDNSF site, can I use my current HTML?

    In my current cart, I have my site layed out and very well formed. Inside of a content div I have a php include to bring in products. Same with my cart.php page, it is all layed out and just a php include to bring in the cart.

    With ASPDNSF can I do something similiar or do I need to create a "skin" and redo all my current layout html?

    Thanks

    P.S. Will my posts always be delayed or do you get white listed after so much time?

    I think I answered this for myself. I found the skinning tutorial and it looks quite simple to take what I currently have.

    Loving this cart already!

    Sorry I missed your first post.

    Yes, you'll need to start with skin development, and use a lot of the out-of-the-box functionality, rather than your existing scripts. One thing you'll notice is the different style that asp.net uses; most of the code is in the code-beside module (ends in .cs or .vb), rather than inline like ASP or some PHP scripts.

    I like to use Microsoft Expression Web for laying out the start of a skin, creating the CSS, etc. Then manually insert the (! ... !) parser tokens to enable live effects. A complete list of parser tokens can be found in the manual.
