Hi,
I am fairly new to visual studio web development, I can do the back end (C# and VB) stuff OK, but I am having some problems with the Web Page Development.

Simply, is there any way I can develop a template that I can use to base all other pages on. But can still be dynamically updates when needed. I don't want to use frames.

This site is a good example, each page you go on has the same top left and bottom. But depending if you are logged in your get a different Left side.

Any pointers would be helpful.

Thanx!

Dave Shaw
 
Apart from the html frameset I dont know any other way.
I use the MasterPage.master to handel this issue, but you can only find this on VS 2005 .NET Framework 2.0


 
You can use page inheritance to do what you need. You basically build a class which inherits System.Web.UI.Page, and then make each page inherit this class.

Here's an example of how you can implement page inheritance in versions prior to 2.0 of the framework (i.e. before master pages):
