here are few tips which may help you.

1) Get contacts of your college Alumni, so have friendship with your seniors in college, go to Training & placement officer and ask for numbers.

3) To get placement in small company (8-25) employee company, you should have working knowledge of asp.net, c#, SQL. Develop a website on e-commerce. it will explore different aspects of asp.net

.net certification for Freshers and College-Passouts

I often get a lots of comments about .net certification for fresh college pass-outs/ Freshers. Some Freshers gets placement but remaining wanted to do some additional study certification so have edge for job.
                                                But as per Microsoft you need to have at least 2 years of industry experience to do the certification which actually do not verified by Prometric Center in India, but when Microsoft says 2 years of experience it means exams require some practical industry hands-on.

1)  If you have good knowledge of .net at fresher level means you have done very good training at college level and executed some projects then, you can give a try,

2) But if you want to sit for exam just on basis of certification dumps, please do not go for it. Get some experience on it, because interviewer will know that you are not genuine & you will face rejection another set back for you that despite of certification you are unable to crack any interview.

Summary is give it try after getting some industry experience.

Debug XSLT XSL transformation in Visual studio.

In Visual studio XSLT transformation can be performed and debugged in very nice way, i come to know this feature when my altova Xml spy license was expired and i was searching desperately for a tool which can show me live transformation ie. debugging. It is best alternative to Altova XML SPY if you already have VS license.

Steps to debug xsl transformation.

1. Open Visual studio 2010.
2) Do not create any project or file, Just drag xml file and xslt file into the Visual studio.
3) Now place break-point in the xslt file.
4) Press Alt+F5 or alternatively select from menu debug->"start XSLT debugging"
5) It will open dialog box and ask for xslt file, just select the xslt file( i know you have already opened it , but do it )
6) Now transformation has been started , you will see the debug point has been hit.
7) Now press F5 to complete the transformation, 
8) Out will be shown either adjacent to XML or XSLT file

Visual studio 2010, alternative to Altova XML Spy
