What happened to Visual web in Netbeans 6.8. Has the feature been removed?
Thanks
Yes, it was removed in 6.8. Lots of people that use it are staying at 6.7.1. The reason VW wasn't included is because that project is no longer being developed, and therefore won't be part of future NetBeans editions.
It is an harakiri for Netbeans!!!
The reason i used netbeans instead of eclipse is the Visual web in Netbeans!!!
You should create another tool (a new Java Studio Creator) for those (we are a lot) that want to continue using this plugin!!!
The Visual Web Pack is an important feature and the main reason why we are using the netbeans ide instead of eclipse in our company for java web development. And now, you won't include this nice and very helpful tool in the future netbeans releases since 6.8? I think, netbeans will going down in the future, because now there is no reason to use this ide instead of eclipse. Good by Netbeans - we have a good time :(

I installed the GtkSharp 3.22.24.36 package via Project > Add NuGet Packages..., which completed successfully. But now Monodevelop can't decide which version of GtkSharp to use (3.22.24.36 or the in-built one, 2.12).
If I uncheck gtk-sharp in the Edit references... dialog, it tells me that I can't use the UI designer without it.
How do I get Monodevelop to use the downloaded GtkSharp (3.22)?
MonoDevelop comes with a custom version of Gtk2 + Xwt bundled. If you plan to use Gtk3, then the designer must be deactivated, since it won't work with Gtk3.
My advice, anyway, no matter which toolkit you use, is to avoid using the designer. As soon as you involve the designer, you code heavily depends on the IDE you use (Visual Studio, MonoDevelop, NetBeans... you name it).
Creating user interfaces "by hand" is no longer traumatic as it was in the 90's with the Windows API. For example, you can find a very good Gtk# tutorial in ZetCode.
User Interface Toolkits are actually very similar, they change the name of widgets and sometimes provide a slightly different layout, but they are all mostly the same, no matter it is WinForms or Gtk(for C#), Swing (Java), or Qt (C++ and others).
I know its an older question but things changed. Abandon MonoDevelop, just use the .NET Standard bound implementation of GtkSharp. You can then literally design interface using glade xml files, using official Glade application from GTK+. You can find it here.
With the current push from MS to abandon Framework in favor of Core, we finally succumbed when we figured out they will kill Framework (which they just did with .NET 5 announcement), but we also used the opportunity to investigate other options for our ports of LoBs to core. We discovered GtkSharp as WinForms replacement and AvaloniaUI as WPF replacement, which not only work perfectly but also truly work cross-platform. We ported several applications already and actually moved more then half of business work stations from Windows to Linux.
I was introduced to programming by the web (HTML, CSS, JS, and some PHP) and never tapped on the desktop development for Windows so when I tried to read through the Windows Phone 8 developer documentations, I was totally lost at sea.
I once read a line or two on Microsoft website that says you can build WP8 apps using just HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript but could never find it any more. So my question is if it's possible?
I tried to find something to get started but it seems to me it all requires C#, C/C++, etc.? I thought they said the web is native in WP8? So in this sense, I should be able to develop apps using just HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript? Am I right?
Yes, of course. You can use PhoneGap to get your job done!
Yes, Visual Studio 2012 provides a template to build HTML5 apps. This template is available with WP8 SDK.
Alternatively you can use Phonegap, Titanium, Sencha.

You can use Phonegap to do that. Phonegap is a wrapper built around html5 technologies.
I've been looking into the same issue, and found this wonderful post:
http://ax2012aifintegration.blogspot.com/2013/11/mvvm-windows-phone-8-app-using.html
Here, they make a normal WP8 app in Visual Studio, and adapt it to be written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, using Model-View-ViewModel pattern.
I believe the upcoming Visual Studio 2013 (which is available as a RC version right now) will have the templates installed, but for now, as others have pointed out, PhoneGap is the best option. I remember having created a JS project in VS 2012, but now that I have a new computer I can't find the templates anywhere.
Here is a nice tutorial from MSDN on how to create an HTML5/JS project in Visual Studio using PhoneGap:

Yes it is possible to create windows apps using html 5 and javascript
U can also develop windows phone apps without having the knowledge of coding...

The new Netbeans 7.3 Beta 2 adds a really nice feature for creating an HTML5 application. It also provides a great way to create a Java Server based Web Application. But there does not appear to be any way, within the Netbeans IDE, to take advantage of both technologies in one project.
Is there a way combine these two type of projects, so there is only one web directory structure with both the HMTL5, js, and web services files?
This is definitely planned for the next release, but it is not yet possible in NetBeans 7.3. You can follow this enhancement request to see progress in this area: http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=222236. If you'd like to experiment with this, you can build NetBeans with the patch attached to that issue.
Anyone had to program a perspective control with ability to setup the position of several views for Netbeans?
Do you know any libraries or have other info?
Thanks for any help!
Geertjan recently introduced this on his blog (here and here) but my understanding is that it will only be avalable in NetBeans 7.1
In the mean time there is a contrib module that Geertjan mentions that should put you on the road until roles(the NetBeans name for perspectives becomes available).
Also I'm not sure if this relates to what you're asking but NetBeans 7.1 is also going to introduce a Visual Designer for laying out modes.
Are there refactoring and other addons for MonoDevelop like there are for Eclipse and Visual Studio, there does not appear to be an ecosystem of addons to help development.
As of now, there aren't third party refactoring add-ins for MonoDevelop. However, the IDE itself includes many refactoring operations and coding helpers, so maybe you'll find what you need without having to use an add-in.
