Hello all,

I created a simple custom control that only inherits from the Literal control, and doesn't have any extensions yet, code is empty.

Namespace: CustomControls

Class name: Literal : System.Web.UI.WebControls.Literal

Next thing I do is registering this control in the aspx page as following:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="web" Namespace="CustomControls" %>

(I read in few tutorials that this is one of the ways to register it, besides web.config etc.)

After all, no intellisence for me, and worse- I get a parse error 'unknown server tag: web' when I try to run the page with the control in it.

I used 'create new project' and not new website, in case this info is needed.

What could be my problem?

Thanks in advance.
