Web Forms :: Shared Same Content File With Two Master Pages
May 18, 2010
I just want to ask something about master page. My requirement is that I want to use two master pages like different banners and want to share for same content page for easy maintenance purpose. Master Pages will be changed depend on login users.
I 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!)
I have a screen in which half the image should be visible in the master page and half in content page. The section of image displayed in the master page should be hidded when there are any controls overlapping. Whereas the section of image in content page should be blured (i.e the content page should be transparent). The content page can be set to transparent using css styles. But not sure how to get half image in master page and half in content page.
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.
I have a main master page, say MasterPageMain, and a couple of folders with couple of pages in each folder which act as a child page to that master page - MasterPageMain.
Now, I have about 10 pages in one of the folder which follows a certain pattern and they could really use a nested pages since any change on some parts needs me to change all the pages which is a pain really.
I already added a Nested master page, say NestedMasterPage - which is a child of MasterPageMain
I tried to change one of the page's <%@ Page directive to NestedMasterPage, immediately, there were a lot of errors. plus I dint know where the NestedMasterPage's children content would go.
What do I need to know in order to do this succesfully?
ps: I dint do this initially because I only had 2 pages, and I dint need this at that time, as the project grew, now i see that I should have changed it much earlier..
My requirement was to share master files among diff projects i read this doc [URL] so i use this technique to share msster pages among my diff projects in a soln but i dnt know how to reference such shared master page as if i use such
how can i add title and meta tags for content pages in a project base on master and content page(dinamically) ?
i used the blow method for master page :
[code]....
and the error is :(in line *)
Error 17 'System.Web.UI.MasterPage' does not contain a definition for 'SetMetaTags' and no extension method 'SetMetaTags' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Web.UI.MasterPage' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I'm attempting to set a class on the body tag in my asp.net site which uses a master page and content web forms. I simply want to be able to do this by adding a bodycssclass property (see below) to the content web form page directive.
It works through the solution below but when i attempt to view Default.aspx the Content1 control loses its content.
Here is how I'm doing it. I have a master page with the following content:
Is it possible with ASP.NET Master Pages to create content pages dynamically?That is, I know we can create content dynamically, but the content pages themselves,can those be created programmatically? I want to give my users the ability to define new content pages (i.e. Categories: Sofas, Tables, Lamps, and add/delete as they see fit) through a management panel. The resulting content pages should have proper URL naming, so that they index properly.An example: http://www.example.com/products/Lamps/contentpage.aspx.Is there a demonstration of this somewhere I can view?
If I go to a content page on my website and enter some data into a textbox, then BEFORE I move focus from that control I press ENTER on the keyboard, the page_load event registers a postback event which in turn passes control to the Master page's page_load event where another postback=true is registered and THEN control goes to the first button on the Master page which is HOME, and then incorrect processing results. Autopostbacks are set to False on the textboxes. If I do not key data into any textbox and press ENTER on the keyboard, I correctly stay within the form
If I use the mouse or tab to navigate thru the textboxes, fill them in and press the Submit button, everything works fine. I cannot see why entering data into the textboxes triggers this action, and even so, why control does not return but instead gets 'lost' on the Master page.
I have some of the methods in the master page,I want to inherit the master page to content page and use its methods...How will be able to do that..Do we have some techniques with inheritence?Please specify the techniques andPlease in C# with Code Behind...
2. In this case, every time I hit {Enter} the submit button is fire but i want search button fire
Master.cs Page_Load() Page.Form.DefaultFocus = textboxSearch.UniqueID; //Page.Form.DefaultButton = btnSearch.UniqueID; Content.aspx.cs Page_Load() Page.Form.DefaultButton = btnSubmit.UniqueID; >>> So how do I make it fire the right button by hit {enter} when the related textbox is focus
In my master page, I'm using a javascript dropshadow. Obviously, I want it to appear in all of my content pages, but at the moment it's only showing in my home page. I've not done anything to override my master page (that I know of!), so I'm quite confused. Has this happened to anyone else? What other info do you need?
I 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 working on master pages. And I would like to create tabs much like firefox tabs sharing sessions which need to navigate on different pages.I tried many solution but all comes into vain.
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?
I am having a slight problem with adding text (output from a stored procedure) to a label control that is nested inside a contentplaceholder (ContentPlaceHolderProductsLeftCol). The page is also using master pages.
Below are excerts of the code - I think I would have to use teh findcontrol property however I am quite lost.
Label name is lastname and is located in ContentPlaceHolderProductsLeftCol
