I don't know about aspx, which I think is a no-go for Windows CE, but you 
should be able to install the Windows CE/Windows Mobile Web server on the 
device and serve ordinary pages, local pages, from that.

ASP.NET is not supported on CE/Windows Mobile.  There is an ASP 3.0 server, 
and ISAPI extensions are also an option.

Thanks.  Did you mean its a no-go for Windows Mobile 5.0?

Thanks

You mean run ASP 3.0 server on Windows Mobile 5.0?  Sorry, usually my parter 
handles this side of the development... you have to explain things like I am 
a newbie!  ISAPI can run an active server page?

ASP is supported, with some limitations, which I'm not intimately familiar 
with (check the CE5 help for ASP -- there's a page called "ASP Functionality 
for Windows CE 5.0").  The Web server will, of course, serve ordinary HTML 
pages, too.  It may be that you can get enough functionality to make it work 
for you, but it's doubtful that it will be a straightforward port from the 
desktop; most things aren't.

Yes, there's a Web server that will run on Windows CE/Windows Mobile and it 
has ASP 3.0 support.  ISAPI is a programming API for the Web server, so you 
can add functionality to the server by adding DLLs built to use the ISAPI 
(not in .NET, however; native code only).  When the page requested by the 
Web client points to the ISAPI extension, that extension is loaded by the 
server and passed information about what the request was.  It can then do 
whatever it wants, including asking SQL Mobile for data, whatever.  ISAPI 
seems more general to me, but ASP might be closer to what you're used to.

Why don't you just develop a WinForms application. I see little point in 
hosting web pages on a device as you are losing all benefits of web 
technology on mobile devices other than using the web server to host server 
side code.
