I've ordered my copy and looking forward to reading it.

How did you do that mouseover that shows the picture of the book?

Hi Scott, quick ASP.Net question for you. I just finished downloading and installing VS 2005 earlier this week and have been LOVING it. I've found a very annoying IntelliSense "feature" that I'm sure pretty much every ASP.Net developer must have run in to, however, and cannot figure out for the life of me how to fix it.

When I start to write inline code (<% ... %>) in an aspx or ascx I get as far as "<%" before Intellisense pops up and selects "<%@ Assembly" as the default value. Now if I type almost anything (a letter, number, equal sign, space) it then inserts "<%@ Assembly" into the code instead of what I wanted to type.

I have found no way to stop this from happening. I, instead, am either hitting ESC to back out of the popup or using the arrow keys to cancel the popup. Any help you might be able to provide would be appreciated.

Great news! I got in on the 1/2 price deal and got my boss to do the same. I can't wait for it to arrive!

Hmmm, interesting, thanks Scott. There wouldn't ever usually be an HTML tag in a user control (ascx) though, right?

Thanks Scott, I appreciate it!

Bookpool sent me an email notifying me of the shipping. Can't wait! VS2005... already installed on every single machine.

The book is too damn heavy to read in the bathroom! After five minutes of resting it in one hand, my thumb hurts.

_Professional ASP.NET 2.0_: not good one-handed reading material. Who'da thunk it.
