Hi Paul,
Thanks for your reply. It is correct i am using c#.
The error message is same as it was before. I am doing it as you were
suggesting but I think it doesn't like the keyword Static???
What are the other ways to access this textbox in the header file??? Or
maybe it should be done after PageLoad event? at the
moment I am keeping the code in the page load event of the page as:
public class SpecialOffers : System.Web.UI.P age, IPageToIncludeH eaderFooter
//this is the interface for Header and Footer that i implement
{
protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Imag e imgPromotion;
protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblPromotion;
protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Hype rLink hlPromotion;
protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Text Box txtHidden;
private void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
Response.Write( GlobalObject.Fi rstName);
txtHidden.Text= GlobalObject.Fi rstName;
Response.Write( GlobalObject.La stName);
MobileShop.Head er.txtUserName. Text="hello";
}

G'day Annie.
Presumably you are using c#...
You are probably doing something like this:
this.myheader.T heTextBox.Text = "hello world" ;
Try changing the "this.myhea der" - i.e. referencing the TextBox via the
instance - to something like:
MyProject.heade rControlClass.T extBox.Text = "hello world" ;
i.e. reference it via the Class name, rather than the instance name...
Hth,
Cheers,
Paul
