Hi,
Is there a way to reverse engineer a pre-compiled website .... if for example someone 8) was silly enough to publish their site to a virtual directory witha local path set to the project folder in VS2008?
Help :)
A:
Reflector is difficult to use with a precompiled site because of the way it breaks up the pages. It is not always clear and not an easy way to reverse engineer.
In fact, one of the main reasons we precompile sites is becuase it is harder to reverse engineer and update production code.

why the downvote? I am interested to find out if others have had different experiences.

I'm not the one who downvoted you. I actually voted you up, because my experience using Reflector on a precompiled web site was similar. However, I still think it's the easiest option if you're stuck. (which is why I voted @BrialLy up as well). Are you aware of any tools that do it better?
