XBAP and HtmlTextWriter

Question

I am trying to use HtmlTextWriter with a publishable XBAP application. When I try to add a reference to System.Web, its not shown as a possible choice.

In my similar windows application I referenced System.Web with a using System.Web.UI.

What is the proper reference for using  HtmlTextWriter in an publishable XBAP application?

Thanks

Answer 2

Thanks, but this does not answer the question. The problem is that

Imports System.Web.UI

is not accessible from an XBAP project because I cannot reference System.Web. I am looking for the proper reference so that I can use HTMLTextWriter in an XBAP project.

Answer 3

System.Web.UI is .Net framework 4.0, not for .Net framework 4 client profile. according my test, when I created a 4.0 XBAP project, I can add the System.Web as reference. If I use the 4 client profile, I can'f find the reference in the add references window.

So what's your framework version? If it is client profile, please try to change it as 4. After you changed, there may be some class or namespace conflict, we need use the full namespace to avoid this issue happen. Something like below:

 public partial class Page1 : System.Windows.Controls.Page

Hope it helps.
