View code not appearing in Visual Studio 2008
Another thing that I need to do is download the hot fix which addresses a couple of problems with Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite so that it can get rid of the annoying of having to go to the Solution Explorer to be able to "view code" in a Web Application rather than right clicking on an aspx page and selecting the "view code" option.

Integrating FCKeditor in my ASP.NET site
