Suggestion for a good ASP.NET Web hosting?
are hundred of ASP.NET hosting companies.
Can you suggest one or a couple of good ones?
I'm looking to build a small Web site (for fun only). Might not even need a
database, but if there is SQL Server, that would be great. The cheaper, the
better. Free would be great, but I do want FTP access. Being able to upload
from VS.NET would be great too, but not essential. ASP.NET 1.1 is prefered.
Thanks.I'm extremely happy with Webhost4life
(http://webhost4life.com/default.asp?refid=dwier)
They are very reasonable price-wise-quite a bit of web space and sql Server
space, if you need it - unlimited bandwidth and the service, as far as what
I've needed far outweighs most of the other hosting services I've tried in
the past. -- unlimited domains (depending on space), subdomains, etc.
Note - I don't recommend them because of the referral program either - -
though that's a plus for me - - note, that my refreral id is in the link
above - - I've been with them almost a year and wouldn't recommend them if I
wasn't going to stay

also look at www.crystaltech.com
I have about 10 sites w/ them and totally satisfied. Support is fantastic
and they have a control panel powered by dot net that lets you administer
all aspects of your site

Support for Com Controls in Shared Hosting Services
For my ASP.NET 2.0 website, I found what looks like a really great freeware
text editor (XStandard: http://xstandard.com/default.asp) but it is a COM
component. I've never set up a website and I'm not sure I want to invest a
couple of days on this control and find out it is not supported. I talked to
someone at webhost4life and he said 'it shouldn't be a problem' and I don't
like the 'shouldn't' word. I'm just wondering: should I be worried about
this or do all the web hosting companies support third-party COM controls
like this as a matter of course?
The XStandard control is a text editor. One of the things I like about it is
that it does not give the user a whole slough of buttons so he can choose
any font, any color of the rainbow or format his text in thousands of ways.
It lets you define the formatting options and presents them in a combo box.
Pretty clever.
Thanks.
Steveas the active/x control is installed on the client machine, not the
server you should be ok.

Survey Module?
There is a Survey Module in DotNetNuke: -
http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Default.aspx?tabid=467
Hth,
Phil winstanley
Microsoft ASP.NET MVP
http://www.myservicescentral.comThanks Paul, perfect.
I'm a winforms developer, new to asp.net. This dotnetnuke looks like a
goldmine. Are there any other must-see resources I should know about? The
Rainbow portal looks very useful too. And IBuySpy of course.
Is DotNetNuke the resource of choice for ASP.Net developers?

- Goto "Options"
- In the "Server" area, say "Use Custom Server" and set the "Base URL"
