My ASP.NET website won't show its textboxes on the internet for some reason

Question

I was wondering if anyone was familiar with this problem.

I'm trying to make a website with Visual Studio 2005 Express Web Developer with C sharp for the programming language. Every time I load the site I'm making on the internet, everything shows except the textboxes for some reason. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Hi, I think I realize what the problem is. I'm not 100% sure but I think Visual Studio's ASP.NET isn't compatible with Yahoo's web hosting service. I was making the site for someone else who is using Yahoo's web hosting. I searched the internet and realized there are other web hosting plans designed specifically for Visual Studio/ASP.NET. The textboxes visibility was true and my code is good because everything works when I test it as a local file on my computer. But when I connect to ftp, it doesn't work as in everything works but it just doesn't show any ASP related controls like buttons or textboxes. If I use a normal html textbox you can see that, the problem is my code behind file can only manipulte the ASP textboxes. Thanks anyways.

Hi Aaron welcome to c-sharpcorner. If the visibility is false for the textbox then it will not appear in browser. Please check the visibility property. I have faced same sorts of problem with dropdownlist. It was invisible in IE6, then I installed IE7 and it works. Anyways please send the code, so that we can check it and let you know the solution.
