Adding a New Web Form to an ASP.NET Web Forms Project
Creating a New Web Form in Visual Studio
This tutorial demonstrates how to add a new web form to an existing ASP.NET Web Forms project using Visual Studio. This involves using Visual Studio's built-in tools to create a new web form file within your project. The new form will contain default ASP.NET code and will be ready for you to add your user interface elements and code-behind logic.
- In Visual Studio's Solution Explorer, right-click on your project.
- Select Add > New Item. (A screenshot illustrating this step in Visual Studio would be included here.)
- In the Add New Item dialog, select the Web Form template. (A screenshot showing the Web Form template selection would be included here.)
- Click the Add button. This adds a new Web Form file to your project. (A screenshot showing the new web form added to the project in the Solution Explorer would be included here.)
Adding Content to the Web Form
The newly created Web Form file (e.g., `user-form.aspx`) contains some default ASP.NET code. To display content, add HTML and ASP.NET server controls to this file. Here's an example that adds a simple welcome message:
user-form.aspx
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="user-form.aspx.cs" Inherits="asp.netexample.user_form" %>
<p>Welcome to the Web Forms!</p>
Output
(A screenshot showing the browser output "Welcome to the Web Forms!" would be included here.)
