Split form tags over separate user controls

[HellTel]

Hi
OK, so can it be done?
To put it simply, let's say I have a header user control and a footer user control.
When I create a new webform, I want to drag these controls on and then type my content in between.
But if I put the <form runat=&quot;server&quot;> tag in the header control and the </form> tag in the footer control, it breaks when I browse (it builds OK).
The actual error is &quot;unexpected end of file looking for </form> tag&quot;.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
Terry

Hi Terry,

A

UserControl

is -like its name says- a control, just like all other webcontrols. Therefore, it should be contained in a

form

with

runat="server"

. The

form

itself should be declared on a page. I don't know about other options to include files like in classic ASP however.

regards,
Blaxo

OK, like I figured then unfortunately.
Although on other projects, I do have the header and footer user controls, but the form tags are on the content page (so the user controls are outside the form tags) and that works OK. It's just the splitting of the tags that seems to be the problem.
Anyway, I think I'll create a user-defined template to create a new web form with everything on there. Trickier, but I have managed to get it to work.

Thanks for your reply.
Terry
