can clients see server side source code ? asp.net

Question

I would like to know if somehow any client using any browser can see my server side code? if it is so how could I prevent this and actually what is the client able to see when he is visiting my web site?

(asp.net)

Answer 1

I've never used asp.net before, but i assume it's the same like PHP or Perl. The client only sees what the server is sending to him (like any other network application).

The normal order of execution of things should be ->
A client sends a request to a specific resource. Your server interprets this request and opens the required files for processing. Then a parser goes through your source files and executes your code.

The only way of source code being send to the client is a typo where you miss the " at the end of your strings.
