Today I got a strange problem,that is I am unable to access master page controls in its code behind,I am wonder because,I can able to access master page controls in their code behind of other projects/applications's master pages.
I know we can acess like this Label lblText = (Label)this.FindControl("lbluserName"); in that situation but I need to access div controls which are set to run at server.
I have a master page setup that is used throughout my site that is basically a header with a menu. I recently added a textbox and a button to this master page which is to be a quick search box that is available anywhere in the site. When a user enters text into the search box and hits the button, I need to load the actual content page which is used to search and show search results (which also uses this same master page), and have the text entered available so the search can be triggered automatically. Again, this search text box and button is now in my master page so it could be triggered from anywhere in the app... it serves as a convenient way to do a basic search from anywhere in my app, without having to first navigate to the actual 'search page' that already exists. You can also navigate to the actual search page, which uses the same master page, where there is many more search options.I'm thrown off by the master page arrangement, which I have not used until this project. What do I do?

How to I put this form on my page? The problem is I have a master page which wraps the content pages content in the ASP.net form, I can't nest the forms.

View 1 RepliesI have over 300 content pages to create. Each has some standard styling. I would like to generate these pages, and was just wondering if there is a utility in web developer 2008 express to do so (otherwise I will just build one - but it would be great not having to do so!)
View 1 RepliesI have 2 nested master pages, lets call them MP1 and MP2. MP1 is top level, MP2 is level
2. Then I have several content pages. Lets say I have 2 content pages for now CP1 and CP2. Each content page has a form that will have some user input and a SaveData()function that saves the data to a database. Each content page also has a "Save" button that calls the SaveData() function.
MP1 and MP2 have several link buttons. The functionality I need is this: Any time a user clicks on a link button in MP1 or MP2, the SaveData() function of the currently loaded page should be called. This is to save the data even if the user forgets to click the "Save" button before leaving the page.
So far I can do this from the link buttons in MP2. I followed the master pages tutorial # 7
In the .cs file for MP2, I declare:
public event EventHandler SaveData;
then i raise a "SaveData" event any time a link button in MP2 is clicked.in every content page (CP1, CP2 etc.) aspx file, I have Master Type directive to assign the Master Page to MP2.
in CP1, CP2 etc .cs file, i have the following code:
protected void Page_PreInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//wire up the SaveData event from MP2 to Master_SaveData function in this page.
Master.SaveData += new EventHandler(Master_SaveData);
}
private void Master_SaveData(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//when the MP2 SaveData event is raised, save the data in this page.
SaveData();
}
All of this works fine.Problem is I am not able to do a similar thing from MP1.What I have tried so far is to raise an event in MP1 that is handled in MP2. When the event is handled in MP2, it raises the SaveData event to be handled in the page. The event in MP1 is null and hence never raised.

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:
Parser Error Message: The 'mastertype' directive must have exactly one attribute: TypeName or VirtualPath
This is on the lines:<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="viewProduct.aspx.cs" Inherits="AlphaPackSite.viewProduct"
MasterPageFile="MasterPages/Main.master"
title="Hi there!" [code]...
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'
Source Error:

I have an asp.net content page which is used inside of a master page (with header, menu and some links). I would like to reuse it in a different context without the master page (to not display the header and menu there), or with an empty master page if this is somehow possible. I don't want to violate DRY principle by taking the whole page and creating a standalone clone of it for obvious reasons. Is this somehow possible ?
