User Control Issue

[jino]

Hi,

I am hosting an ASP.NET application as part of a website. The website is maintained by a third party. My application has to fit into these web pages - by keeping the structure(left menu, right menu and images on top) of the pages similar.

There are some banners that run across the top of all the pages. I encased the HTML for this part as a user control and added it to my pages. But my page does not respond to events when I include the user control. My page works fine if I remove the usercontrol.

The code for usercontrol is pasted below. Any ideas?

<table width="743" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" ID="Table1">

<tr>
<td height="15"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="15" border="0"></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td><a href="../index.html"><img src="images/left.jpg" alt="NSDCS" width="333" height="99" border="0"></a><img src="images/right.jpg" alt="NSDCS"
width="409" height="99" border="0"></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td height="7"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="7" border="0" alt=""></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td height="1"><img src="dots_743.gif" width="743" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td>
</tr>

Any ideas?

Looks like you have pasted some HTML markup that represents a table. That table contains several cells. One of those cells contains a form and associated fields. What is this "usercontrol" you are talking about?

I don't see anything special about the code you have pasted. If you want my advice, remove all the table layout code and reduce the whole thing massively utilising CSS... but that's not going to change anything... just seperate content from layout.

Maybe you pasted the wrong thing?

Cheers,
Jeff

I have had a similar problem. I work for a University and we have standard header/footer controls (user controls) that we use on each page so that all of our web pages are somewhat uniform.

I am not sure the below is exactly right - but this is how I remember it. The problem has happend when I create a web form from scratch. I don't often do that - I usually start with an existing form and modify it, so I may have the details wrong.

Anyway I have found that if I drag the header control onto my form in the web form designer, it may put it in the wrong place. It looks fine in the designer, but if you look at the HTML there is a problem. The header control needs to be after the <Body> tag but before the <Form> tag. If it is in the wrong place, the page events don't fire.
