You need to set up IIS to serve the pages first...

(After making sure IIS is installed!), Start->Administrative Tools -> IIS. Expand root-> Websites -> Right Click Default Web Site -> New -> Virtual Directory (Phew!)

This will open up a wizard. This allows you to configure a virtual dir for your web app. This is the difference between plain HTML and asp / aspx etc pages. HTML pages are sent to the browser which renders them directly - which is why you can just open em in IE, but an active page uses the services provided by the webserver (in your case the access it provides to .NET services), to generate dynmic HTML which is then sent to the browser to be rendered (which is why you can view the source of an active page, and all you see is html / client scripts, and not the source of the aspx)

In order for the webserver to provide these services, it needs to know that it's supposed to! When you configure a virtual dir, it then handles the processing like it's supposed to.

The first page is the Alias for the site - how you want to refer to it in the URL..give it a name, and click next, then you can give it the actual location of the directory containing te webapp. At the next page, check what you want (default is just fine), et voila...

now point your browser at http://localhost/NameYouChoseForAlias/ and all should be good....

If it doesn't work, some things to make sure that the site is configured as an application in IIS (right click the site, properties, and if name blank, click Create), and that you have an appropriate default page (default.aspx or whatever), and if not that you add your default to the list of defaults - again through site props.

Sorry so long, hope it helps Wink | ;)
