Classes in C# [Classes in C#]

To start off our company is attempting to broaden its development horizons by becoming as proficient in C# as we are already in VB.NET. With that we have been running across a number of issues that I wanted to see if anyone else out there is having and what if any workaounds exist or more likely what we are doing wrong.

First
Has anyone else out there seen or experianced the Visual Studio forms designer in C# projects just arbritrarily munging the placement of controls at run time when in design time there they sit right where we put em. Note we are being carefull NOT to touch the forms designer generated code only touching the one place in the constructors where we are supposed to put our own code.

Second and perhaps more perplexing
We have a project defined class template with some properties. like so

namespace ProjectX
{
    public class clsMember {
        public clsMember()
        {
        }

        // Main Member Data
        string _bsuNumber = "";
        string _cisNumber = "";

        public string BSUNumber {
            get {return this._bsuNumber;}
            set {this._bsuNumber = value;}
        }

        public string CISNumber {
            get {return this._cisNumber;}
            set {this._cisNumber = value;}
        }
     }
}

Now we have this class in our projects next we might want to use this class within some form class so we define an instance at the form level like so...

static clsMember _member;

Next within the some method inside the form we might want to use the class so we do something like this
public SomeMethod()
        {

            _member = new clsMember();

          // do something to fill the class with stuff

          // here we want to use the thing


            this.txtMemberBSU.Text = _member.BSUNumber;
            this.txtMemberCIS.Text = _member.CISNumber;

        }

Our problem is that the Intellesense on Visual Studio does not show us the public interface on the _member instance of clsMember. It is valid as if I remeber the exact case formatting for the member methods I can certainly code the thing up but Visual Studio's helper functionality is not working as it always does in a VB.Net project.

I can't help but feel the we are just missing something. Or perhaps we have structured the thing incorrectly. So I figured I would petition the SME Gods for a sign.

Let the Flames begin...

Thanks

Getting ASP.NET servers to send some specific HTML for non Microsoft browsers [Getting ASP.NET servers to send some specific HTML for non Microsoft browsers]

I suspect I am just missing something simple here, but I have a situation where the html sent to IE via some simple ASP.NET pages that I am futzing about with render fine in IE as expected, Also as expected render like bat guano on non IE browsers like Mozilla, Opera, and Firefox.

Now if I take the actual HTML stream from IE by examining source and compare it to the source sent to say firefox I can see that several of the parameters sent to IE are missing in the html streamed by IIS to the non microsoft browser. Presumabily these browsers don't support these parameters on the controls ( Text boxes are an example ).

But If I save the IE HTML to a file and open that file in the non IE browser I get perfectly rendered output in the non IE browser. So the browser does allow these parameters but IIS is just not sending them.

My question is how do I get IIS to expand its output to include these parameters on more browsers than just IE?.

(I have tried numerous browser ID strings settings with no luck) so my thought is that there is something else the IIS and ASP.NET are doing to detect what broswer I am using. ( Some expanded browser caps settings for example )

I'm sure the flames are coming but I have my fire retardant on so do your worst!
