Import Namespace highlighted

I don't know why the Import Namespace code is hightlighted in yellow. I copied the code from the book. When I go to Internet explorer to run the aspx I get asked to open the file or download it? It opens up VB.net if I open the file.

The yellow highly is because those are page directives (<%@...).

How are you calling the ASPX file?

I type in http://localhost/dirname/filename.aspx

Hello,

What OS are you running, and do you have the .NET framework and IIS on your machine? I've run into that problem whenever I didn't have IIS before.

What editor are you using? The yellow is typically because the editor is coloring the tags in that manner.

I am running Win2k. I am using Visual Studio .Net. I am running IIS, but what is interesting is that I am not sure if the SKD Framework is running. I have it installed however.
