Convert html to aspx

Question

Is there any tool or code to convert HTML files to .ASPX?

Elaboration to earlier question: I am looking for tool or code that automatically converts HTML controls to .ASPX server controls without having to manually change each control, i.e., something that will take an HTML page as input, parse, and output as an .ASPX page with server controls.

Answer 1

No conversion needed. Just change *.html to *.aspx.

If you want parts of the HTML page to become dynamic, there's more work involved then.

Answer 2

No, ASP.NET code is embedded in your regular HTML code, so your default web pages will have the extension .aspx but there are a few other things you need to do to get a ASP.NET site up and running.

Check out this link with some help on how to get started with ASP.NET

Also, here's one of my favorite books on the subject that really helped me learn more about ASP.NET (you might want to find a version 4.0 book though if you are working with the new features of ASP.NET.)

Answer 3

Its very simple to convert .html to .aspx

if you just change the extension from .html to .aspx ,

1. Sometimes it leads to some unexpected exception handling, that says as , file cannot open or corrupted You will just have the filename.aspx page(design and source) BUT WILL not get the filenmae.aspx.vb page(coding).

So better follow these steps :

1. Open the .html file in a notepad and copy the contents.

2. Create a new webform in visualstudio (with masterpage)

3. Goto source page and erase the default contents and paste the copied contents
4. Save it. execute it .

Note(Imp): Do not forget to keep ur webform controls , jscripts, css(stylesheets), images(if any) within the project created
