Hi, are there any functional differences between v3.x.y and v4.x.y? I.e. is one preferred over the other for a green-field?

Related questions: I've set up a local install of v4 and created a web-site, only now to discover that the host I want to publish it on only supports v3! If I can't upload to a V3 web-server from V4, then I'm happy to redo the web-site (only minor work done), but I guess I'd have to install v3 locally to do web development?

Kind regards, JP

Basically they are the same, 3.x works with ASP.NET 1.1 and 4.x works with ASP.NET 2.0.  If your hosting provider can't offer you a .NET 2.0 hosting environment I would seriously consider moving to one that does.

I can't predict the future, but I can tell you that 4.x will be the best version down the road.

Many thanks Dwayne. I'll ask my hosting provider about that. Any one know about using V4 locally and uploading to a V3 web-server? Is this possible? Sounds like it might not be.

That would be playing with fire and it will hurt. What you could do is use 3.x locally (simply change the ASP.NET to 1.1 in IIS Manager) and upload that to your server. The bottom line is that 3.x and 4.x are not interchangable; someday (hopefully sooner than later) 3.x will not be supported.

OK thanks Dwayne - I sort of expected that. As it happens my hosting provider does support .net 2, so I should be right to upload a v4 site to them.
