Web Forms :: Data Sets - Use Master Pages Or User Controls?
Aug 20, 2010
I have a C# website developed with Visual Studio 2008 with a SQL backend. I have a top Navigation menu that has seven different tabs. I have a specific right bar content for each of the seven tabs. The content for the right bar is stored in a sql database and will be accessed using data sets. I believe that I have two ways to display the information with the data set...
1. User control - Create a User Control for each data set and then drop that on to the respective pages.
2. Master Pages - Create a Master Page for each of my seven sections, adding the data set to the respective Master Page.
Is there a preffered approach to achieve my goal? I am thinking Master Pages would be the most efficient but not certain. Is there another method I should consider?

I have taken over an application where the original developer has used an inordinate amount of user controls and master pages. There are multiple master pages all over the site, with user controls on top of user controls through out the site as well. Some of the user controls are reused, many are not. Would you deem this an efficient or worthy use of user controls and master pages? From my point of view it clutters the project and makes debugging a real chore.

I am using a <a href=[URL], an open source e-commerce platform, for one of my projects, and I noticed that they use Master Pages as well as user controls. When I looked some of this up, some people made it appear as if Master Pages were intended to replace user controls. Is this true? In my opinion, if I were to start an ASP.NET app from scratch, I would think a Master Page would be enough, but I guess user controls could be utilized.

I want to search my asp.net pages and user controls to see which master page and base class they use. I mention search because we are re-factoring a large project and we need to track progress on the code conversion. I know I can pull this information individually but I need a automated and repeatable procedure.

I'm trying to set profiles/themes using a basepage to allow the colour of my site to change for users. I can do this on a single page but I'm trying to do this site wide and am getting an error.
I've been watching http://www.asp.net/general/videos/how-do-i-create-user-selectable-themes-for-a-web-site this tutorial
but I'm getting errors at the final step...
System.NullReferenceException was unhandled by user code Message="Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Source="App_Code.gflsvdcc" StackTrace: at BasePage.OnPreInit(EventArgs e) in D:WebsitesBalticQuarter19.01.11App_CodeBasePage.vb:line

is the error, The error occurs because of the line 9 =
9 - Me.Theme = Request.Form(Me.Master.FindControl("DropDownList1").UniqueID)
If I insert this instead of the text above the colours change on the site.
Me.Theme = Request.Form("ctl00$DropDownList1")[code].....

I've got a web site that has a master page and that master page (mpMaster that has a user control ucControl1) which has a sub user control (ucControl2), this user control has a property which accepts a value. Now, I have a page that uses the master page
and on this page I have another user control (ucPageControl), I need to find a way of setting the value in ucControl2 from ucPageControl. Is this possible at all?

I have an asp.net website with master pages. My controls got renamed from "myTextbox" to "ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_myTextbox"...and I have many javascripts that use that unique id...
HOWEVER, just suddenly (it used to work), my controls are now named (I can see this in viewsource) "ContentPlaceHolder1_myTextbox", so my javascript is all broken.
What caused this sudden change in naming convention?
I know javascript can utilize asp.net's ClientID property...but this is not working for me, cuz I need to be able to do "getElementById" and you can't use the client ID here.

I made my own master-detail pages using a listview. Rather than url, I use a listview event to set a session variable and response.redirect to the detail page, which on Page Load, loads the data from the database using the session variable, where it can then be edited. The details page is basically just text boxes and dropdownlists, but I used some third party controls and it all looks really sharp.
Here is the corner I pained myself into. Several dependent dropdowns on the master page filter the main listview. If I go back to the master page using response.redirect, the user would have to use the dropdowns again just to get back to where they were before they went to the details page. This is just not going to work.
To further complicate things, I wanted the master page to have paging on it. So if a back button reloads the page, they would have to set the dropdowns again, and page through the data again if needed. Egads.
The closest I have come to working is using a javascript back back button, but this fails after some postbacks on the details page (that are needed). And of course, the master page isn't refreshed when you go back to it (but I could probably live with that).

I have a simple site [URL]that I setup for my parents and other family member to share recipes on. The issue I have is that when I try to incorporate a google search the header is always RECIPE form from the dynamically driven site.
If page requested is [URL] in a SEO return I want it to have the title of the recipe to be Apple Sour Cream Crumble Pie not RECIPE FORM or RECIPE PRINT FULL FORM
How can I get this changed and also have metadata dynamically created to improve SEO returns?

I have a following scenario - A use selects criterias from a webform (C#) - a result is then returned from the sql. Say, to start, there are 2000 data returned from the sql and are stored in a dataset.
Now, the user wants to choose a number of drops (up to 6) - with the number of drops selected, they can enter their own quantity in each box. So, they can divide the 2000 records into 6 different drops. With each drop, there is campaigncode created based on the mail date and the job number they provide.
So, now i have the 2000 records in a dataset. What i want to do is loop through the gridview where the user fill out the quantity depending on the number of drops (for ex: if they say 3 drops, then there will be 3 rows in gridview with 3 quantity box to fill).
In the loop, I am getting the quantity, dropdate and the job number. The Campaigncode is created as well. Then, i am looping through the datarow in the dataset; updating the Campaign Code column with the CampaignCode for the number of records thats set in a loop. It works but the Campaign Code is not populated for the next set of records.
Here is the code:
[Code]....
I think its this line right here thats causing the problem. But i don't know how to tweak this so as to accomplish what i want to do.
if (Convert.IsDBNull(DSAEFile.Tables[0].Rows[i]["Campaign Code"]))

I have a complicated report that nests six deep and so really hits the database hard. I want to use SqlDataReaders NOT DataAdapters and DataSets because I don't want big tables in memory.
MARS can get me the data fast, all from the one connection. But all the examples show it binding to a treeview.
I want to bind it to nested GridViews (six deep!).
Any examples of MARS binding to nested gridview/list/repeater controls of any kind?

I have two SQL queries that are stored procedures that have 2 variables that my web form will be supplying through text boxes. The two queries will produce two different results. I have read a couple of different of the MSDN articles online, including this one:
[URL]
that say that the tables must be similar to be able to merge them into a single datagridview. I know that datagridviews only like one table at a time, but I was curious if anyone had found a way to merge two dissimilar tables to one datagridview or not.

I've spent the last three days searching for a reason why I cannot loop through controls on a page link with a Master Pages, and have tried every example found on the web with no joy.
The most resent and the one resource that makes since was found on ASP.Net, but unfortunately it creates an infinite loop and dies. Link for my latest attempt: [URL]
This post was written in C# and I may have missed something in the conversion over to VB shown below.
I have around 100 checkboxes on this page that I am trying to load into a Array List to evaluate on the page code behind when returned by the function.

I have a master page. This is where I put my ScriptManager control.I have a nested master page within the master page.I have a content page within the nested master page. This content page needs to register a Postback control with the ScriptManager, but I can't figure out how to access the ScriptManager. Both Master.FindControl() and Master.Master.FindControl() always return null. I also attempted to use a strongly typed master page, but like all controls, the ScriptManager is protected and thus inaccessible from the content page. How can I access the ScriptManager?
