Web forms design view is not working

Virender Bartwal

i have installed visual studio 2015 on my system. whenever i try to create a web form and add some components (buttons, textbox )onto it and see its design view, it does not show me the design view without any message. can you please help me out.

Is there any other way to achieve this- i simply want to perform a button click event whenever a button is clicked but without design view i can't perform this action. how can i do that..

Hi Dear,
Yor are doing worng because your start page set Index.aspx so change it. follow the below instruction.

Right Click on Default.aspx page and set it set as start , then run .

thanks amit for your kind response. but what i am saying is , i can't see the design view of my web form wheter it is (default.aspx) or (index.aspx) page. whenever i clicked on Design (Design, Spilt, Source) it the screen holds, nothing works.

for example : i have placed a button there and i want whenever the button is clicked the coressponding funtion works. For that i need to view its Design view, so that i can create a Button_click event but i can't because the design view is not working properly.

is there any alternative to create and perform Button_click Event. Am i doing right? is there any way to perform Button!_click event without design view.
