Using VS2008, I am trying to add an App_Code folder from add-->folder-->Add ASP_NET folder.
The App_Code folder option is there as expected BUT ... it's disabled!?
I am pretty sure I am working with a WebSite project (and not a Web Application) because I can add all the other ASP_NET folders (App_Data - App_themes etc) and also because I don't have the controls declarations in my-code behind (as opposed to Web Application where you have partial classes with controls declaration and eventHandlers etc.). Fact is, if it's not a website project how come I can add the other ASP_NET folders? And also - why I am not getting any designer file with controls declaration etc? This is the way things used to work in VS2005.
If I go ahead and add App_Code folder myself as a normal folder it picks-up the icon of the ASP_NET App_Code folder - so it seems to be working fine.
Still it's bugging me 'cause I can't understand why the opion is disabled in the first place.
Any clue why this is happening?
EDIT: I am trying to create a new web site and I get only the web application template so I doubt I was able to create a website in the first place. A bit confused here!
Are you sure it is web site project and not web application?
