When you create an ASP.NET page with no controls and runs it, a view state hidden field is added.
Looking at what's in it (with ViewStateDecorder) reveals that there's a single value there that contains a number.
My question is - what is this number?
P.S. I guess this value appears on every page, with or without controls.
I want to write own control which can contain other. And I want to define content of the control in the .aspx file where the control is defined. I have written such control. But now I have issue with ViewState of inner controls of my control. The following samle illustrates the issue: I defined two asp:DropDownList ID="ddl1" and ID="ddl2" One of them is inside of my control and other is outside. When posback is occurred asp:DropDownList ID="ddl1 loses state and becomes empty. How to say ASP.net to store state of inner controls defined by this way?
MyControl.ascx:
<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="MyControl.ascx.cs" Inherits="DynamicControls.Controls.MyControl" %>
<div class="box"> [code]....
which page need to be checked. Master or Content. I dont think there is anything wrong in the content page.
View 1 RepliesIn master page I am using asp content place holder. And in my child page I am using pure html coding. When I attach master page in my child page I am getting this error.Content controls have to be top-level controls in a content page or a nested master page that references a master page.
View 1 RepliesCan I ask what this error refers to, (I have had it twice now over the last couple of days and then it goes away):
System.Web.HttpException: Content controls are allowed only in content page that references a master page.
This is followed by Stack Trace:

I have been getting this error a lot lately with some of my users, and I had a couple of concerns with view state and I have read so many articles but I am still lost..
1. I use masterpage on all the pages and I need viewstate for some of the pages but..
There is a page where a user will fill out the information and then submit this data to a cgi server, and it is where I get most of the Client Disconnected errors, what would happen if I disable viewstate when they click on that button?
Now when a user browses from one page to another, does the view state from the previous page get deleted? If not how would I delete it?
Does the master page have its own viewstate? Would I be able to make sure none of items on my master page are using the viewstate?
I have a shopping cart page (Cart.aspx) that has a button that will (sometimes) post to a third party payment gateway, if payment is necessary. The payment gateway will process the payment and then do a silent post to my website (Order.aspx) so I can update the order status.
Order.aspx always throws an invalid viewstate error, even though viewstate is disabled on the page.
What's happening is that Cart.aspx (which has viewstate enabled) posts to the payment gateway, and the gateway will post it back as part of the silent post. Even though Order.aspx has viewstate disabled and validation disabled, it still tries to validate the __viewstate field it's being given.
I know setting EnableViewState=false will disable the rendering of the __viewstate field, but if another page provides the field, shouldn't it still skip validation? I tried calling ViewState.Clear() on the Page_Init event of Order.aspx, but ViewState is apparently empty. how to get around this? I don't want to disable ViewState on Cart.aspx (in some cases it may be necessary), but I can't figure out how to clear it on Order.aspx.
What are the latest and greatest ways to compress the ASP.NET ViewState content?
What about the performance of this? Is it worth it to keep the pages quick and minimize data-traffic?
How can I make:
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE"
value="/wEPDwUKMTM4Mjc3NDEyOWQYAQUeX19Db250cm9sc1JlcXVpcmVQb3N0QmFja0tleV9fFgkFLGN0b

I have one asp.net page which seems to return a very big content (5,648,733 bytes and that is mostly consumed by VIEWSTATE) ending with a 504 Gateway timeout error. I am tracking the http request/response by using Fiddler.
And basically, when I post-back the same page -by clicking a button- the post-back fails with thoose errors shown in IE and in FF:
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage --> in IE
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. --> in FF
Question: Can this be because of the big size injected in VIEWSTATE; and if yes, what is the main
reason so that it loads the page but cannot post the page back after?
My project has the following repeater menu shown on the Master Page. I need this menu to remain hidden until the user logs in. How do I access from content page?

I'm using this Ajax script [URL] to load content from an aspx page on another server than the page calling the content. So far I've learned that this is a no go. The problem seems to be that when using an absolute link to content the script fails as apposed to using a relative link.
I've searched the web for about 10 hours now, and I still haven't found what I'm looking for.
I bought a website a few years ago, hosted with WebHost4Life,. Since their migration their has been nothing but problems with my site, however, I am stuck because I don't have the knowledge to move it, have tried with no success. Anyway, recently I have been getting parser error messages, Webhost fixed them, and then it starts over again. It takes them weeks to get around to it and since its my livelihood, I can't afford for the site to be down for 5 days then running for one day. I've tried to contact the guy that built the site to no avail, he won't answer my emails.
why these parser errors keep happening. This is a recent thing from the past 2 months, never had this before. What can I do to stop it. it looks like the knowledge here is unreal, I'm in awe everytime I read your answers. BTW, heres my lastest parser error:
Parser Error Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.

i have a masterpage and has some linkbuttons in it, i also have a webform which is a content page for the masterpage. i like to access the controls to the webform via the linkbutton residing in the masterpage or access the linkbuttons via the webform controls.
View 1 RepliesI have a master page with a textbox that I want to use for a search, and display the results on the content page.
I've dragged in the datasource to the content page, and configured the formview to use that datasource... almost.
The issue I'm having is that on the last step of the configure datasource wizard where you select the parameters, I want to select the master page textbox control for the search parameter... but of course it's not available in the list. The list only allows me to choose controls from the content page.
How do I set this master page search box as the parameter for my datasource?
I am having asp:hyperlinks in my master page, which i use as my page headers. I would just like to change the text format of the hyperlink when a content page is loaded.
the CS code for accessing the master page contents from content page?
I have a page that loads a usercontrol dynamically. Depended on the user's actions, this control may be unloaded in Page_PreRender and a different control may be loaded instead. I am attempting to use the solution outlined by Mark DotNet Evans in this post:
http://forums.asp.net/p/1491790/3814320.aspx
This all works great, except if the user clicks the refresh button in the browser just after the change of usercontrol. Then, I get an error
Failed to load viewstate. The control tree into which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree that was used to save viewstate during the previous request. ...
I assume the error is caused by the browser re-posting the request with the old viewstate that matched the control tree when the page was loaded, but no longer does. How can I prevent getting an error when the user reloads the page?
On MasterPage i have function below, how call this function on test.ascx form on button click.

}
else { lbtnSignInTop.Visible = false; lbtnSignUp.Visible = false; } }
The following code works fine for disabling content page controls, but how do I disable master page controls?
public void DisableControls(Control control,bool isEnable)
{
if (control.HasControls())
{
foreach (Control c in control.Controls)
{
DisableControls(c, isEnable);
}
}
else
{
if (control is IPostBackDataHandler && !(control is IPostBackEventHandler))

if (control is WebControl)
{
((WebControl)control).Enabled = isEnable;
}
else if (control is HtmlControl)
{
((HtmlControl)control).Disabled = !isEnable;
}
}
}

I have a ShoppingCart UserControl on MasterPage. I have a following functionality: User adds item to the cart. after clicking the button "Complete Sale" in UserControl the page is redirected to "CustomerInfo.aspx" and after filling the Customer information and clicking on submit which is on CustomerInfo.aspx page i want to call the "Complete Sale" click event of UserControl from "Customerinfo.aspx" page.

try
{
bool val = false; int retVal = 0;
CustomerBiz objCust = newCustomerBiz();
objCust.FirstName = txtFirstName.Text.Trim();

but how could i access controls of content page from master page. suppose a textbox there in content page and one button is there in master page. i want that when i will click on master page button then i want to show the text of textbox in the content page in the label of master page. how to achieve it.
I'm trying to make my masterpage work with my content page, allowing the content page to access the master page controls. I get the error:

I'm a bit confused with namespaces and such so may have got them wrong, but all pages are in the same namespace now I beleive.
Update,When I turn it to:
<%@ MasterType VirtualPath="MasterPages/Main.master" %>
I keep getting the error: Compiler Error Message: CS0030: Cannot convert type 'AlphaPackSite.Main' to 'ASP.masterpages_main_master'
