I am using VWD 2005 Express and every time I try to create a nested master page, the select master option is not highlighted for selection.
This has never happened before so I wonder what in the world could be going on.
The WorldPay payment gateway suggests using this HTML to take the customer to the payment page:
<form action="https://select-test.wp3.rbsworldpay.com/wcc/purchase" name="BuyForm" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="instId" value="211616">
<input type="hidden" name="cartId" value="abc123">
<input type="hidden" name="currency" value="GBP">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="desc" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="testMode" value="100">
<input type="submit" value="To Payment!">
</form>
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.
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?

But other aspx pages i created in the root directory shows every thing fine.

How do you implement SquishIt to bundle Css/Js across View Pages and Render it in the Master page? I thought I could use a ContentPlaceHolder above the Render portion, but there seems to be some odd behavior where it sometimes adds 3 files (1 in the view page and 2 in the master page) but other times will ignore the file added from the View Page.
Index.aspx
<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="CssFiles" runat="server">
<% CssHelper.Add("home.css"); %>
</asp:Content>
Site.master
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="CssFiles" runat="server" />
<% CssHelper.Add("reset.css"); %>
<% CssHelper.Add("master.css"); %>
<%=CssHelper.Render() %>
My current solution is a Static wrapper around SquishIt's static Bundle class that keeps the BundleBuilder in HttpContext.Current.Items.
I'm curious if this has been done successfully and how so.
I got a Master page and nested master pages in the subfolders.
Top Level Master page
Second Level Master page inherited Top Level Master page
Third Level Master page inherited Second Level Master page
However, changes (i.e. new images & alt. name) that I made in the Top level master page did not apply to the second or third levels.My webpage has a correct front page but not in the sections. How can i correct this ?

View 3 RepliesI 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!)
View 1 RepliesI'm starting with ASP.NET MVC (1.0). I have a problem to resolve. I have developed a web applicaton (an application of articles like e-commerce) with a head (logo and menu). I have defined the head (logo and menu) in the Master page (site.master). Now, I must display the number of articles in the head in a field (like the number of articles in the virtual basket in the e-commerce). I can read the number of articles in the data base (in the controller), but i can't integrate it in the master page.
View 1 RepliesI 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?
View 4 RepliesI 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..
In the VS 2005 Solution Explorer, you can nest files such as page.aspx.cs underneath page.aspx. Is there a way to add other files there? For example, I'd like to include a page.aspx.js file in there too, so that the nesting would have page.aspx at the top, then page.aspx.cs and page.aspx.js underneath it.
Is that possible in VS 2005? How could I set that up?
I'm currently in the process of creating a webshop. This webshop supports theming, but I also want customers to choose a lay-out. I can create multiple masterpages and create a handler to dynamically set the correct master page. But some components, like the shopping cart, are controls which have to be present in the master page and are also used in the aspx pages. The shopping cart control for instance, has an Update method which is called whenever the user adds a product to their cart. So the question is: can I somehow create a default masterpage which has all the components on it, but still be able to create multiple lay-outs. And how should I reference that master page from the aspx pages? I also thought of creating an Interface class which defines the masterpage and it's public components, but I don't know if I can reference an interface from aspx pages.

View 2 RepliesUsing MVC 2 for what it matter. (And also keep in mind for some reason I NEVER used Nested Master Pages)
I got a single Master page that work across my site.
However, I found from the design now, that each "Area" have a different subnavigation.
Figured it might finally be a reason to use Nested Master Pages....resulting into a lot of swearing over here...
What I did:Add a "Nested Master Page" to the "Shared" folder of a specific Area
(project/Areas/xxxx/Views/Shared/NestedMasterPage.Master)VS bring up a box asking to specify a Master Page, and I select the only one i have (project/Views/Shared/Site.Master)Leave it as is, I add a new View and for it's Master Page I browse to the new Nested Master Page.When I click Add, the following Error comes up:"The ContentPlaceHolder 'MainContent' doesn't exists in the Master page '~/Areas/xxx/Views/Shared/NestedMasterPage.master'. Please choose a valid ID for this Master Page.Bit buffled..the code for the nested master look like this:[Code]....
'MainContent' right there, or what is VS talking about?

View 4 RepliesMy web site will have lots of pages, too many to provide links for in the menu as shown in the form of the wizard-generated menu. One solution I'm investigating is to have a main menu where each item will pop up a submenu, like in a Windows app.
Can I use a "Menu" control in a master page to do a pop up menu? If so can you point me to an example or show me (a novice) how to do it? I.e., each item will have a controller action, so how do I connect the menu item to the action method?
Is there a way to assign pages created from a master page with their own meta tags? I know that some search engines don't weight meta tags very highly, but I still would like to use them if possible.
