Chapter 1 Ctrl+F5 don't work, F5 does work?
I'm new to ASP. Bought this book (Beginning ASP.net 3.5) and am starting to work through it.
I installed the express web developer (I also have VS 2005 on this machine). I did the "Hello World" (Chapter 1) put in the code and pressed Ctrl+F5 and the browser (IE7) displayed a blank page. I started VS 2005 and created the "Hello World" example there and the Ctrl+F5 works there. It opened a different port. I copied the url and pasted it into the address window from the blank page browser changed the port to the port from the express web developer 2008 and it works fine as does pressing F5. I checked that the dot net framework 3.5 is installed and it is.
A coworker has the full version of web developer installed and Ctrl+F5 works on his machine.
So my question is: 1. Is this known behavior with express, or is it a configuration issue with my installation? 2. If it is a bug in the code is there a patch for it, or do I live with it? 3. If this is a bug without a fix should this be posted as an errata explanation
Thanks

Hi JimBoAk,
It shouldn't be like that. Ctrl+F5 should always open a page in IE just fine.
What's the address in the address bar you get in IE when using VWD? What happens if you don't put in any code and simply choose File | New Web Site | Ctrl+F5? Do you get a blank, but correct page then?

The address in the IE address bar says: "about :blank" the tab says "Blank Page" when using Ctrl+F5. When using F5 it returns: "http://localhost:1236/WebSite1/Default.aspx" in the address bar and the tab is titled: "Untitled Page" and the Hello World text is displayed.
When I select File, New web site and make no changes IE returns exactly the same as above for Ctrl+F5. The address bar says: "about :blank" the tab is titled "Blank Page". When I press F5 it returns: "http://localhost:2531/WebSite2/Default.aspx" in the address bar, the tab says Untitled Page, and the page is blank.

Hi JimBoAk,
Do you get the same response when you choose Debug | Start Without Debugging? And do you see the Ctrl+F5 short cut for that menu item?
If that doesn't work either, I guess there's something odd going on. Ctrl+F5 should work as advertised, so you may need to reinstall or reset your settings.
Cheers,
Imar

Is there a possibility that CTRL-F5 is mapped to something in Windows? You can map keyboard shorts to your own Windows shortcuts. Any Windows shortcut matching a program shortcut will be captured by Windows first.

Yes to both questions. I am going to install on my notebook and see if I get the same issue before I reinstall on this machine. If the Ctrl+F5 issue is the only quirky thing, I can live with it.

Peter,
I'm quite sure that Ctrl+F5 isn't mapped to anything else in windows for three reasons. 1. I'm the only person on this machine since a clean system build and I haven't done any mappings. 2. I cannot find any other mappings for Ctrl+F5. 3. Outside of VWD Ctrl+F5 does nothing unless focus is in a windows application that uses that mapping specifically.
I do appreciate your response and welcome any possibilities that anyone may come up with.
Thanks

You could try resetting your settings: Tools | Import and Export Settings | Reset all settings.
Maybe that helps....
