hello all.

i have a problem with debugging (ch 18). i set all breakpoints etc. but when i press f5 or start debugging, vwd opens my web site's first page(Default.aspx) on the browser, not the page that i have set the breakpoint. i'm sure that its a setting of vwd but i can't find it.... i'm using firefox but i tried it also in IE, and vwd 2010 Professional.

thanks...

Hi there,

Depending on how you set things up and where you set the breakpoints, this may function exactly as it should. Breakpoints break when they are hit, not sooner. So, let's say you set a break point in a button's Click handler and then press F5, a page will open in the browser and the breakpoint won't be hit until you cllick the button.If that button is on a different page, you may need to browse to that page first.

If you were expecting a different page to open when you press F5, either right-click that page in the Solution Explorer and choose Set as Start Page, or open the web site's Property Pages and configure the desired start up behavior in the Start Options category. Use Current Page starts debugging with the active page in the editor.

Hope this helps and Happy New Year.

Cheers,

Imar
