Atlas is still in beta from Microsoft and because of this, code that worked in previous CTP versions of Atlas may not work with later CTP’s. This is exactly what happened with the version of the MSDN article built with the March CTP version of Atlas. The link below is to revised Atlas Membeship Management source.
This how-to series is my personal exploration into figuring out not just how to make things work, but how they actually work. The theme behind this series is: "If it’s not broken, take it apart and try and figure out why". I plan on covering many issues in ASP.NET 2.0. If you are interested in a particular part of ASP.NET 2.0 that I have not covered, please contact me and time permitting, I’ll see if I can figure out how it works.
In this article, a simple asp.net 2.0 page will be taken apart and shown how the actual page class is put together. As we know, when an http request comes into asp.net through the http pipeline that is destined to be a page (file type aspx), the objective of asp.net 2.0 is to create a complete class that encapsulates that page request. That page class is an httpHandler of course.
