I have Firefox set as my default browser, but I want to debug the ASP.NET Web Application with IE. Searching SO only shows replies to "Browse with ..." However, this doesn't start the debugger. How would I do this? I remember in an old Visual Studio setting the browser to start with the debugger, but I don't remember how - and where it is in VS 2008.

+2  A: 

Go to default.aspx -> right click it -> select browse with -> set IE as default browser -> run the app

Will this change my default browser PC-wide, or just in the context of debugging in Visual Studio?

Its for visual studio, give it a try and check! :)

Okay. That starts it. But why doesn't debugging stop when the IE window that spawned is closed? VS 2005 stopped the debugger this way. Is it another setting?

It should stop it when you close the browser(IE) as far as I know, even in VS 2008 (I always used this!)

Okay. I'll mess around with it a little more. Thanks!
