Asp – What do people call aspx files to distinguish them from aspx.cs/aspx.vb code-behind files

asp.netcode-behind

In the "code-behind" style of ASP.NET programming, you split your code into two different files, an .aspx file and an aspx.cs file. (That's for C#; for VB, it's aspx.vb instead.) Everyone seems settled on calling the .aspx.cs/.aspx.vb files "code-behind files" or just "code-behinds". The question is: Is there a similarly established term for the .aspx (non-code-behind) files?

I've seen "aspx files", but that is arguably ambiguous.

Stephen Walther uses "presentation pages". (example) I'm not sure how many other people do.

There might be multiple valid answers here. My main use case, though, is finding the best terminology to use when googling, or when searching or writing things here on Stack Overflow. Sometimes you want to ask or say something about just the "non-code-behind" file.

Best Answer

I call them "aspx pages" or "aspx files" or even just "aspx-es".

Not sure why you'd think that's arguably ambiguous. Can you elaborate?
