Open a .aspx page without the VS

hi, were developing a web aplication as a school project, so we need to give our source code to our teachers so,... it might happend that the theachers dont have the Visual Studio 2005, so...

Is there a program to open .aspx files, (not IIS or Apache) a simple windows intallation program, or a executable that could run the .aspx, and make a virtual server like Visual Studio does to run the page?

Well, you would need IIS to host the web application. You might as well deploy it onto IIS on one server so all the teachers can access it.

how about installing a single IIS for everyone in ur class, or hosting it and giving the URL to your teacher.

but u need these components to run aspxs

It would be easier to install VS express edition on the machines where you give the source code. VS is free, and in education environment, you do not have problems with licencing and other stuff. You could also do with IIS installation, but that is quite complex, as you need to configure the folders as applications, and other changes for database, if at all you are using. Easy and convinient is to download express edition of the softwares, and have a go!

yeah well... its just what i was afraid of... we have intalled the IIS and publish the web aplication but the thing is that the teachers... might check the aplication a time after our presentation so... that the why of the q... but no prob...

if they want to check and review it the must intall one ... either VS or IIS :P

just to be sure, nobody knows like a virtual server... (excutable) to run .aspx... :P !?

you can open aspx pages to view the source code with notepad.

here is a link to a package that uses cassini to host asp.net pages - I haven't used it, and don't know if it helps...
