C# - How To Retrieve A Control In A Master Page From Content Page
Feb 23, 2011
when I asked recenlty a question about how To retrive a control in a Master Page from Content Page. Many peoples use this code from my Content Page:
Label lbl = this.Master.Page.FindControl("uxLabel") as Label; //Note any server controls defined in the master page could be not be accessible even after a cast is performed, because they could be marked as protected
This approach certainly works, I also realise that is available a strongly-typed solution that doesn't involve casting the Master property.
I have a master page with a form on it. It's a people search form. When the user clicks on the search button it goes to the search results page that uses the same master page. With the code below I get the info off the master of the current page. Howdo I grab that info from the first page? Here's the code:
Imports System Imports System.Web.UI Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls Partial Class mstrIntranet Inherits System.Web.UI.MasterPage Public Property mSearchName() Get Return txtSearchName.tex End Get Set(ByVal value) txtSearchName.text = value End Set End Property
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load txtSearchName.Text = "People Search" End Sub End Class
Search Results Code Behind page:
Partial Class PeopleSearch2 Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Public SearchName As String
Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim mpTextbox As TextBox mpTextbox = CType(Master.FindControl("txtSearchName"), TextBox) SearchName = mpTextbox.Text
I have a javascript function on my Master page, how do I access it with a dropdownlist of a content page. Not from codebehind, I can do that, but from the control itself such as the onSelectedIndexChanged event.

The page has a master page that contains a Tab user control. The user control has several tabs and every tab has a different Status.

I looked at your example URL....I have ScriptManager in masterpage how call ScriptManager from masterpage in editorPage.aspx if (Script Manager 1.IsInAsyncPostBack)
Does any know why I can't access the my custom user control StatusBar which is declared inside a masterPage?
In the ContentPage, I tried referencing the control this way "this.Site.stastusBar" and "this.Master.Status" and neither one works. Both instellisense warns me that "statusBar" does not exist.
