Web Config : why no pop windows

I am building a web application using VS 2005 , .net 2.0 framework..

Why I am not seeing any pop up windows from where I can pick the options. All I am seeing is !-- , ![CDATA , ?

Anyone knows why ?

If you have used the built-in web admin tool (launched via the WebSite->ASP.NET Configuration menu item in VS 2005), it adds the xmlns namespace to the root <configuration> element and it stops the intellisense to work. Just remove the xmlns attribute and your intellisense will start working.

Your web.config should start like this,without the xmlns attribute on configuration element

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
...............
</configuration>
