I have a MasterPage (MasterPage.master) with 2 child MasterPages (specialMaster.master and standardMaster.master). From the MasterPage.master I need to get at some of the controls in one of the children, specialMaster.master, say for example to hide certain
content if a session variable is not null.
I have a main MasterPage that, as intended, forms the entire layout of my site. It has a bunch of methods common to all pages that use the mastertype, such as EnsureLoggedIn and such.
I want to move on to using nested masterpages to open up better layout options in some of the pages, but I am running into an issue. I get the layout of the nested masterpages fine, but I cannot access any methods in the parent masterpage.
I know my explanation seems a little sparse; I'm not exactly sure how to word what I'm looking for, heh. But here's a short example:
[Code]....
I'm changing the CSS of my menu items during runtime to reflect which page is currently being viewed. It works fine. But, I have a nested master page that needs to change the CSS of the master page's items. How I can access the master page's menu items?
Here's the menu:
Code:
<div class="Menu" id="TopMenu" runat="server">
<ul>
<li><a href="../Default.aspx" runat="server" id="HomeButton" class="ActiveMenuButton">
<span>Home</span></a></li>
[Code] ....
I need to access the InventoryButton ID, but am unable to directly.
I am currently working on an application implementing custom localization features. I have created a number of web user controls for different activities on user designed pages. I wish make my webcontrols to check if the page using the control is a simple page or content page of a master page. In case of simple page we need to change page direction from ltl to rtl. In case of content page we need to change direction of master page.
View 3 RepliesI don't understand because the click event doesn't fire in ascx control nested in masterpage.
The scenario is:
In Page Pre-Init i load a particular MasterPage, one of these have a ascx control with LogOff Button.
The ascx is showed correctly but doesn't fire the button click event that allow me to logoff.
I haven't load the control programmatically but directly in masterpage:

I´m having a little trouble finding a radiobutton on a nested masterpage.
I tried this code.
//Principal principal = (Principal)this.Page.Master;
In my application, I use nested master pages. In the main.master which is the top level, all encompossing master page, I have some properties. I want to set the value of this property from a user control embedded into the page which is using master page which is embedded into main.master. To clarify further, here's the hierarchy
main.master
content.master
some_page.aspx
myUserControl.ascx
The property is mpProperty1 which is in main.master. How do I access and set the value of this property from my user control?
I have 2 masterpages. (Default.master and User.master).I have a hidden field in Default.master then how can i get the hidden field value of Default.master file from User.master.is there any way to access that hidden field like: Request.form("hidID") ?
View 2 Repliesaccessing a table on a page's masterpage.
So I have a sitemaster page and I am getting header and footer controls from it. But for a perticular page I would like not to show the footer and just the header.
Therefore, I am trying to access the master page table control with id "footer".
What I have tried and they all didnt work. First I tried,
Dim ptrMaster As MasterPage = Page.Master
ptrMaster.FindControl("footer").Visible = False
This gives me a null pointer error.
Then I tried to put in a accessor method on the site.master (masterpage) itself.
Public Sub HideFooter()
Me.Controls("footer").Visible = False
End Sub
But the problem here is when I create a masterpage object on the page that I would like to not show the footer. I cant see the method. So if I do
Dim ptrMaster As MasterPage = Page.Master
ptrMaster.HideFooter()
HideFooter doesnt show up as a method.
I have a MasterPage in my project which it contains a FormView and the FormView is databound with a Connection String to a SQL DataBase.
This FormView is selecting users information from Database, when the ContentPage is loading, Im trying to get the information from the FormView of MasterPage and load them in Content Page, but it is not working fine for me.
For Example:
In MasterPage I have a FormView such as follow:
Name: Amir
LastName:Zandi
Username:amirzandi
In ContentPage, I have a Label and I want to get the name from MasterPage and replace it with the text of the Label.
I am doing this at PageLoad of Content Page with the Following Code:
[code]...
At the page load of ContentPage, it says that it could not find the FormView1
but after I refresh the page, it works fine.
is there anyway for me to ask the FormView in MasterPage to DataBind and After that, it retrieves the Data from FormView and place them into the ContentPage.
I also tried: fv.databind() but it is not working.
I have a SharePoint 2007 Server and want to create a site with a nested Master Page.I created a new Master Page, test.master:

Test123
<b>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder runat="server" ID="TestPH" Visible="true" />

I have a solution with quite a few different MasterPages / BasePages which all inherit from somewhere else. My problem is that I have a virtual string in BaseMaster, which is overridden by BaseManagement, but when I try to access this string I always get the base valueThe point of inheriting masters and pages is obviously to avoid having duplicate code everywhere.
View 1 RepliesIn my masterpage, I have a menu that hosts an anchor. That anchor points to a another page and looks like this:
ASP.NET Code:
<a href="../resources/techs/masterlist.aspx">BOMs & Service Manuals</a>
I used the designer to input the href location. This page and the "masterlist" page are using the same masterpage.
When I run default.aspx and click that link, it works no problem. But when I click that link from the masterlist page, it throws an exception because it can't find the file. Which makes sense, it's looking for "/resources/resources/techs/masterlist.aspx" because that page is already within that directory. I know how to format that link you point to itself no problem, but I can't figure out how to do it so that I don't have to manually change each page, nulling the purpose of the masterpage.

Can anyone give me an idea how to go about this? I've tried searching but most articles talk in the context of web controls...
I have designed a navigation structure that is customisable from within my application and linked to the users role.
So I can restrict what menu items a user gets based on their role.
I have managed to do this quite well using SQL Tables and an ASP.Net Menu.
I can get it to only show the menuitems that are marked active and I have created an Stored procedure to get the menu items for a particular role.
Where I am struggling is getting the Logged On Users Roleid to pass it to the Stored Procedure.
I can get it using a regular aspx page but my menu is on my masterpage and I do not want to have to code it in each and every page.
I even tried to do it with a user-control but same happens. It seems that the User class is just not available when in a masterpage.
how I can pass the roleid from a Class or something or from the page to the masterpage?
Situation:In Web.Config we have CustomErrors turned on with redirectMode="ResponseRewrite".In Page_Load of our MasterPage we access the Session property of the Page.
Problem:When an Error occurs on any page the user gets redirected (via Rewrite) to our Error.aspx Page. There in the Page_Load of the MasterPage we access the Session and get an HttpException telling us to enable SessionState. But we have the SessionState enabled, definitly.
Question:How can we access the session after a UrlRewrite in the Page_Load Event of our MasterPage?
I have a button on a masterpage, which when clicked, calls a method that takes an EventHandler previously saved to the viewstate, this method is on the client page, and executes it:
protected void Save_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.SaveButtonEvent += (EventHandler)ViewState["saveEvent"];
if (this.SaveButtonEvent != null)
{
this.SaveButtonEvent(sender, e);
}
}
This then calls a very simple method on the client page:
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label1.Text = TextBox2.Text;
}
However, the value of TextBox2 is incorrect, it is the value of the text box that was set when the page loaded (or if any other item on the pages changes it), the new value is not passed.
If I add a button to the client page, that calls the Button2_Click event directly, it get's the correct value.
Is the reason I am not getting the correct value of the text box because the Event is called from the master page?
I should add, that this button is created dynamically, and the event delegate will vary, which is why I have to set it at run time. I need a way to set the delegate on a click, and persist this until it is changed again.
I'm embarrassed to ask this here because it's clearly been duplicated several times already on StackOverflow. I've read a lot of stuff including:
