Tip #54: Did you know…How you can turn off intellisense for HTML/ CSS editors

If you would like turn off intellisense in HTML editors (aspx, html files) and CSS editor (css files), you could do so by going to Tools->Options dialog.

For HTML editor, go to Tools->Options->HTML->General. In the right pane, under Statement Completion, uncheck "Auto list members"

For CSS Editor, go to Tools->Options->Text Editor->CSS->General. In the right pane, under Statement Completion, uncheck “Auto list members”

  Hi, I have a related question . Is there any way to stop VS 2008 designer from auto generating the Styles for each html element/control ? Currently , when i apply some style for one of the controls, vs2008 creates style1, style2 .... I want to stop that , or if there is a way to let Vs ask me about the name of the css class before creating an auto name for it ? Thanks.
