I spent a few hours trying to figure out this issue and I narrowed it down to VS 2005 having a problems with CSS.
In a project I started recently I have an ASP.NET page that anytime I go into design mode and drop a control on the page VS 2005 will freeze with devenv going to 100% and sometimesy VS 2005 crashes if it does not I have to kill the devenv process.
This happens anytime I go to design view or drop a control on the page. I found that when I removed my references to my .css file the problem stopped and I could add controls and go into design view. Then if I add my css link back in the IDE freezes again.
This code is no different that what I would have done in VS 2003. Can anyone help me out on this issue
Thank you,
Patrick

You maybe better posting the question over at the ASP.NET forums, since the site is dedicated for such questions:

however I am also sure someone may well respond to your problem here :-)
