Include Files in ASP.NET

Justin

Currently I have a site template using classic asp that uses include files to seperate content from display. How can I do something similar in ASP.NET/C# code behind. Mainly I need to seperate navgation header, side bar and content.

Any tips or techniques would be great.

Thanks, Justin.

You can still use <include> tag in ASP.NET or you can build UserControl to do that

Justin,
A lot of people use webcontrols to hold the content, such as a
header and footer, and then plop them onto pages as they need. Another
approach is very similar, except then instead of just loading the header and
footer into each and every page, you create a new base page class that
inherits from System.Web.Ui.P age that overrides the render event and loads
these controls for you automatically (inserting header at the beginning and
after the normal page rendering is done it loads and adds the footer
control). You can essentially make it as complicated or simple as you want
with these methods. Using your own header and footer controls is a good
place to start though as it does a very similar job to the SSI includes.

Hope this helps,

The most common replacement for old fashioned include files are web user
controls.
They basically are like object oriented include files on steroids.

ruminations on #include and paths

by: David Mathog | last post by:

One thing that can make porting C code from one platform to another miserable is #include. In particular, the need to either place the path to an included file within the #include statement or to very carefully define the order in which paths are searched with command line options on the compiler. Both can cause problems, especially when dealing with complex software distributions. It occurs ot me that by extending the C include...

Is #include inside stdafx.h a bad idea?
