In our web applications, we seperate our Data Access Layers out into their own projects. This creates some problems related to settings. Because the DAL will eventually need to be consumed from perhaps more than one application, web.config does not seem like a good place to keep the connection strings and some of the other DAL-related...
I have a relatively simple site that I'm working up for an intranet environment. The pages have a hook to display a simple bit of text (possibly with a bit of HTML for markup purposes) for help when the user clicks a link on the page. I'm debating whether to put the help snippets in their own XML file or create a section in web.config. T...

In asp.net 3.5, I have a problem that if I upload my global.asax to the remote web server, the app starts looking for my local sql server and eventually times out.

We have a legacy ASP.net powered site running on a IIS server, the site was developed by a central team and is used by multiple customers. Each customer however has their own copy of the site's aspx files plus a web.config file.

Is there a good tool to compare specifically web.config files to find specifically which settings are different values and which file has settings that don't appear in both. XML comparison should do the trick, or an XSLT might work. There must be a tool for web.config settings out there? ...

The widget renders correctly when debugging with VS 2008. ...
