at the section

"We Have Used WebMatrix"

I followed the link section to download the app, installed, then start a new blank site, choose a default .aspx from template and click on RUN IT. and for my surprise, it was not working. The browser keep showing

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden

 

after a few hours and some "angry birds" trying to find out the solution, i find out that i need to

 

1. Install IIS through control panel

http://windows.microsoft.com/pt-br/windows-vista/install-internet-information-services-iis-7-0

 

2. Use method #3 on

https://support.microsoft.com/pt-br/kb/942062

 

3. In order to example 1 works, i need to add the <%= %> on the paragraph, and also remove the @ to see it working.

 <p>The Time is: <%= DateTime.Now %></p>

If i took some hours to find out how to start the ASPNET tutorial on W3School, can you imagine a complete rookie on asp.net? he will probably gave up like I almost did. So please update the page on http://www.w3schools.com/aspnet/webpages_intro.asp with these 3 steps to a more complete page for begginers (like me)

 

thanks
