No comments within RadPageLayout?

[Rob Ainscough]

For some reason in "design view" (in VS 2015) having any comments within the scope of RadPageLayout triggers errors?

        <telerik:RadPageLayout ID="RadPageLayout1" runat="server" BorderWidth="1px">
            <!-- Online -->
            <Rows> 

....

Designer triggers error that on <!-- Online --> ??   This is valid syntax so no sure why the design has a probelm with it?

Cheers, Rob.

Hello Rob,

This is a generic Visual Studio error which you will get and experience with the native asp controls too - screenshot:

<asp:DropDownList runat="server">
<!-- Online -->
    <asp:ListItem Text="text1" />
    <asp:ListItem Text="text2" />
</asp:DropDownList>

The server ASP tags do not allow any other content including HTML tags except the allowed ones related to the specific control.

Hi Rumen,

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that restriction.

Cheers, Rob.
