Dear all,

I'm designing a big project by .NET.

I use Response.Write() instead of Webform to build all of my UIs.
It's well known that Webform has tons of advantages such as Event
Handle,Databound and wide browser compatibility while I just can't make it
fit my system architecture. In other words, I like the freedom of spit out
HTML code by myself and gain 100% control of the Form Submit.

My system architecture is --
1. Every page derives from a base Template class which make the basic
process like User authentication.
2. Every page has exactly 2 layers, one is UI and another is BI.
3. There is only one <Form></Form> in one UI.(in WebForm it seems you have a
lot of <Form></Form>s and it's hard to control the submit of each form by
youself)

Here are my questions --
1. Am I making a mistake or on the wrong way to design a big system by this
way?
2. What are the pros and cons of Webform vs Response.Write()?

Best regards
Timothy

YES!!!!!!!!!!

Using ASP.NET the way you describe is like buying a Ferarri in order to =
drive to your letterbox to get your mail in the morning.

Invest some time in learning to use web forms. You can make some very =
sophisticated user interfaces with ease, which, if done in the classic =
asp way by hacking around cgi variables, would be so complicated and =
full of bugs they would never work. I used to work with classic asp and =
coldfusion and can use and abuse cgi with the best of them, but would =
chew off my own lips before going back there.
