Web Forms :: Adding Controls To Master Page To Manage Application Testing?
Aug 31, 2010
I have Web Application which uses the Logged In User (Authenticated User) to query his Profile Data from Adabas/Unix using OLEDB. The application provides the user with about 21 different pages (Basic Info, Employment Info, Education, Dependants, Financial Info ...).
The web application has a master page, and each profile data page is based on a User Control loaded in the Child ASPX Page.
The Data Layer of this Web Application will have to undergo major modification, since we are migrating our legacy applications from Adabas/Unix to SAP, the development Team has prepared web services to query for the same Profile Data from SAP using Web Services. Now, we have to modify the web application to consume the web services instead of using OLEDB to query Adabas.
Since we are in the testing phase, and we have only very limited data in SAP, I have to provide temporary control to allow test query the Staff Profile for a Specified User (instead of the Authenticated User) and to select the Source:
1. SAP, or
2. Adabas.
So I am thinking to add the following "Control Section" in the Master Page:
[Code]....
See image below to clarify:
[URL]
Becuase the users defined in SAP are based on Dummy Data, so we want to allow the user to Enter the required SAP User, and he will select "SAP" from the Drop-Down-List. In this case, the program will query for Staff Profile Data from SAP for the specified "Staff ID" (txtSAPStaffID) instead of the Authenticated User. But, if "Adabas" is selected for the "ddlDataSource" then, it will default to the Authenticated User.
I noticed that when I am following the above technique, if I press "Go", the Staff Profile Data Page is disappeared, and when I navigate from page to another, the selection on the values entered in the "Control Section" in the master page are reset to default value, ie, the last values are not maintained.
Questions:
1. What is your feedback on the method I followed above ? Any other recommendations? I need very simple method.
2. Why the data page (the child page of the master page) is cleared (disappears) when I press the Go button ?
3. How to maintain the values selected when I navigate from one page to another ?

I am adding text fields to a page from the database. I set the .ID to match the record ID from the database. Of course becasue the text field is on the masterpage, when I grab the .ClientID, it is ctl00 contentMain$ctl00. what I don't get is where is my ID? If I set it to say AB how do I find the textbox by AB? I thought it should have AB in the ID somewhere. ID is nothing which I don't get either. I'm looping through the controls in a placeholder like this
For Each row In dtData.Rows()
Dim c As Control
For Each c In phTextRequired.Controls
If c.UniqueID = row("CustomFieldID").ToString() Then
Again though what is in the row() is say AB but the id is way off from that.

My master page looks like:
<head runat="server">
<title>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="PageTitlePlaceHolder" runat="server" />
</title>
Content pages look like:
<asp:Content ID="TitleContent1"
ContentPlaceHolderID="PageTitlePlaceHolder" runat="Server">
My Page
</asp:Content>
This works by placing the content page specific title on the page ("My Page" in this example). Now I want to add a global prefix to the title in my master page for the site name. So I want:
<head runat="server">
<title>
Example.com:
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="PageTitlePlaceHolder" runat="server" />
</title>
However, when I do this content pages are still rendered without "Example.com" in the tile, it's like it's ignored.
Why is this happening and how can I achieve this?

I come from a windows dev environment so the web makes me feel like a big dummy.
I am using VS2008, VB.NET, 3.5 Framework, ASP.NET, AjaxControlToolkit.
I have included a screen shot that might help to look at while you read my attempt to explain my issue below!
I just recently discovered in a book here on my desk how to interact with a master page programmatically from a nested master page or a regular aspx child page. The method they describe makes sense and is familar to me because they use Public Properties on the master page to manipulate the GUI and controls on the master page. But since they are public, the child pages can see them and fire them off. Makes sense.
I thought I could use this method to do the opposite of that and have the master page fire off something (say a public property in a nested page) to have it then do some work and update things on that nested page.
For example,
I have a MASTERPAGE.MASTER. Under that, I have a LEFTNAV.MASTER (so its a nested master page). Then, under that I have my default.aspx page.
(I did that so that for some of my regular aspx pages I could just tie them directly to the master page so that they dont have a left navigation page...like for big charts or graphs, etc. Is that the best way for that by the way?)
So on the masterpage, I have just a simple asp.net search textbox and an asp.net search button. When they type something in and click search, I want it to add a tab to the AJAXControlToolkit - TabPanel that I have on the default.aspx page, then some other things such as update a datagridview there with the search results.
I can do all of this except the event firing and scope. I cannot see a way to make a button on the master page up top fire off an event that is on the default.aspx page to make it do what it needs to do.
What I tried doing was creating a public property on my default.aspx page. I have some actual code in the SET to do some GUI manipulation and change some stuff on the page. But on my master page within the search button's click event, I cannot see where to call this public property on the default.aspx page...

What are the steps to implement webparts into an existing application that already has been set up to use asp.net membership? I have yet to see how to get this to work. The only thing I am accomplishing is generating the following error:
The specified connectionStringName, 'LocalSqlServer', was not registered. (C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727Configweb.config line 312) at System.Web.Configuration.ProvidersHelper.InstantiateProvider(ProviderSettings providerSettings, Type providerType) at System.Web.Configuration.ProvidersHelper.InstantiateProviders(ProviderSettingsCollection configProviders, ProviderCollection providers, Type providerType).
So, what is the deal here? Is it because my site uses masterpages? I have profile, roleManager, membership and connectionstrings in my web.config. I tried adding a webpart section, like I found on one website, to no avail. I was still getting the 'LocalSqlServer' error bunk.

looking for information on how to do this. our company has one website, with several different applications. the way we have set it up is that we have been creating these different applications as websites, we have one Master page for the whole site, so when we create a new website we also create a virtual site with our master page in it. We are using VS 2008 now and what we want to do is make the change to creating web applications but I have not been able to figure out how to bring our master pages into the application, without bringing the actual pages into the app. the only thing I have been finding is people creating the master page file in the web application, that will not work for us, as we have to many applications and if there is a change in the master page it has to show on our whole website, so we need to either be able to bring our master page in as another project or set it up as a virtual directory, or reference it in the web.cofig somehow, but the master page needs to stay in it's own directory and only referenced.

i'm having this issue, in ASP.NET MVC 2 where I'm adding a drop down list on the master page and filling it with data from an abstract master controller. When an option is selected an submit button clicked, it reroutes you to a new page. so lets say
the page lives on http://domain.com/landingPage i'm on: http://domain.com/landingPage i select option and submit takes me to
http://domain.com/landingPage/Projects/FramedPage i select again and now the post tries to go to:
http://domain.com/landingPage/Projects/landingPage/Projects/FramedPage because of the action="" i have set on the form tag.
MasterPage:
<form method="get" action="landingPage/Projects/FramedPage">
<%= Html.DropDownList("navigationList")%>
<input id="navSubmitBtn" class="btnBlue" type="submit" value="Take Me There" /> [code]...
The problem i am having is that if I am ON that page

I want to have 4 links in the sidebar of master page which every other form (content page) in my web application inherits.
<table>
<tr>
<td width= "150px">
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
<asp:Menu runat="server" ID="MainMenu1" CssClass="MasterContent" StaticSubMenuIndent="30px">
<Items>
<asp:MenuItem Text="My Software" NavigateUrl="~/MySoftware.aspx"></asp:MenuItem>
<asp:MenuItem Text="Check Out" NavigateUrl="~/CheckOut.aspx"></asp:MenuItem>
<asp:MenuItem Text="View Shopping Cart" NavigateUrl="~/ShoppingCart.aspx"></asp:MenuItem>
<asp:MenuItem Text="Continue Shopping" NavigateUrl="~/Start.aspx"></asp:MenuItem>
</Items>
</asp:Menu>
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</td>
<td width="900px">
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder2" runat="server">
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
This is the content in the master page as you can see there are 4 menu items i tried to form as sidebar and i tried to inherit in home.aspx(one of the content pages) as follows:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Start.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebStore._Start"
MasterPageFile="~/Webstore.Master" %>
<asp:Content ID="StartSideBar" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1">
But unfortunately the sidebar is not at all getting displayed. I know i'm doing fundamentally wrong some where. My intention is to have web pages to have sidebar like this. It is a screenshot of my intended page.
