When writing code, i got some troubles. It's:

1. I defined this for C# web code:
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
Can you tell me how to the browser compile the C# code?
I mean: Can Firefox throw exceptions?

2. When loading, the pages which wrote by C#, will be loaded faster or slower than javascript and CSS?

3. Will I need hosting which is supported for C# to run the code?

Thank for help!

Your fundamental understanding is flawed. A browser does not compile anything, it simply renders what the server returns. C# is a server language and is not comparable to CSS or javascript. CSS is strictly for styling and javascript is a client side scripting language. Browsers don't throw exceptions, they render what the server returns.

Agree. I would add that the HTTP server delegates compilation to the compiler installed on the system; it can be actually MSBuilt. ASP.NET functionality is based on .NET Framework installed on the system, and the network comes with C# (and VB.NET) compilers which always present. CodeDOM can be used. This is the implementation detail of some server's plug-in.

1. Browsers do not compile code. IIS and ASP.Net do and then send html to the browser.
2. C# loads on the server and JavaScript and CSS are applied by the browser on the client computer.
3. Yes, you need to have a hoster who supports ASP.Net.

The compilation is done by a compiler provided with .NET Framework installation. (Voted 4.)

I might be wrong but I though ASP.net was compiling the sites using Aspnet_compiler.exe, not the compilers provided by the framework (or at least not directly)

Yes, it is ASP.Net which is then managed via IIS.
