MasterPages or Web Visual Inheritance (ASP.Net 1.1)? Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet. Post a new message to this list... VR Hi, I read about Master Pages in ASP.Net 2.0 and after implementing some WinForms Visual Inheritance I tryed it with WebForms (let's say .aspx pages, my MasterPage does not have a form tag itself so, cannot be called a WebForm itself, the child pages will implement forms). I created a Master.aspx page and removed all HTML from it, added some code to the .aspx.vb file to add controls to my page. Then I created a Child.aspx and changed the "Inherits System.Web.UI.Page" to "Inherits MyWeb.Master" and everything gone really fine. Problem: all I need as HTML/Forms/Controls/Etc need to be created by code, I cannot use the Designer to work on the page (but, let's say that's my problem) Question: Is there anything I'm missing here? Is that easy like it? Is there any internal ASP.Net design considerations that would bring me problems with this approach? PS: I know about the MasterPage control found in www.asp.net, I do not need an alternative for my approach, I just want to know if this kind of design would work without problems. Thanks, Victor Reboucas Reply to this message...        Curt_C [MVP] Are you trying this in 2.0 or in 1.0/1.1 ? If 2.0 you need the MASTER= in the page If 1.0/1.1 you aren't going to get the same functionality -- Curt Christianson Owner/Lead Developer, DF-Software Site: http://www.Darkfalz.com Blog: http://blog.Darkfalz.com "VR" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> wrote in message news:%Click here to reveal e-mail address...

The problem is not getting the same functionality (I know these are two different approaches), I want to know if I could face problems with this approach (WebForms Visual Inheritance). Let's say I asked myself "since Framework 1.0 there is Visual Inheritance for WinForms, why did not MS say you can do the same with WebForms, is there any problem I'm missing?"

You can get it with controls and you can work around it at code time but I do not believe you can get design time visual inheritance in VS2002/3. -- Curt Christianson Owner/Lead Developer, DF-Software Site: http://www.Darkfalz.com Blog: http://blog.Darkfalz.com "VR" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> wrote in message news:Click here to reveal e-mail address...
