Hello

I'm using master pages with a login - I'm storing the member ID in the query string and have a side bar with links. The side bar is part of the master page.

How can the links in my sidebar access the querystring? Or do I need to use session variables?

In other words, if my code below is in a master page, can it access a query string?

<a href="memberpage.aspx"
target="_self">Back to my member page</a>

Thank you in advance
Dave
 
I'm a bit confused by the question. There is a code-behind page to the master page in which you can access the querystring and then do withit what you want.
 
I tried using the code-behind page to the master page months ago and it caused a lot of errors - I'm going to put the links on my content page and only use the master page for text and images. I thought about it more after I posetd to tek-tips.

Thanks for replying
Dave
