Q: 

Error with masterpage

Hi,

i'm creating a brand new masterpage with VS2010 Beta 2 and I get this warning (that causes me errors in the content pages):

Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Content is not supported outside 'script' or 'asp:content' regions.

The masterpage's code :

<%@ Master Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Bob.master.cs" Inherits="TShirtFactory.Web.All.Core.lib.masterpage.Bob" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"&gt;

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="head" runat="server">
    </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">

        </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

As you can see, it's the default masterpage generated code. I get the warning when I hover the tag at top. Does anybody have an idea of what's going on ?

Thank you

A: 

It's simple... Visual Studio is bonkers. Actually, the truth is that it can't possibly validate some markup simply because much of it is dynamic. For instance, in my project I have a constant warning about the lack of a <title> tag because it's added dynamically. Bottom line: the XHTML validator does not really know much about ASP.NET code.
