    Converting from v1.1 to v2 and problems with switching design mode

    When converting an Asp.Net (VB) from version 1.1 to 2 the project
    wizard converted the project and the code can be compiled without any
    errors.

    However when opening the web page and trying to switch to design mode
    there are a number of error messages appearing. Such as can not nest
    TD within a Table, non matching tags, nesting tables within a form and
    some properties no longer available.

    What is the best method of converting the web pages so that there
    design is available in VS 2005?

    The wizard should not trash your HTML if the original code fully
    conformed to the HTML 4.0 standard.

    You should still be able to view/edit the code in the HTML view.
    Check for HTML that was handwritten that may break HTML coding rules.
    From the messages you describe, it sounds like some of the HTML tags
    were not closed off properly in the original code:

    ie <TR><TD></TRwas used instead of <TR><TD/></TR>
