I am using ASP .NET 2.0, VS2005 Professional RTM.
I added a master page to my web application and made my default page refer
to it. I then proceeded to theme some elements in the master page.
Everything worked great. When I then went to my login page and had it refer
to the master page as well things started going wrong.
I attempt to run my application and get directed to the login page. The
login page is missing all the "themeing" from the master page portion. For
example, one of the skins contains the path to the logo image. The link
shows up broken. However, if I look at the source of the web page the path
is in there and it is correct.
If I proceed to login in I get to my default page and everything is fine.
If I click the back button the login page shows up as it should.
I have the theming set up from the web.config file.
Any ideas?

Yep, you need to allow anonymous access to the App_Themes directory via a
<location> element:
<location path="App_Theme s">
<system.web>
<authorizatio n>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>

Thanks that did it.
After rereading my post it seems so obvious that I should have checked that
based on the symptoms.

Hi,
I've a a site with nested master pages and content pages. I tried using
a theme with a stylesheet in the app_themes directory referencing it in
the web.config file from a pages tag theme attribute. This works for
the content pages, but it doesn't seem able to apply the styles to the
top master page even though I did set the master head tag to runat
server. Is this by design? If so, what is the best way to apply styles
to the top...

I may be missing something, but why aren't master pages part of themes?
i.e. why don't they go in the App_Themes or global Themes directory, and be
referenced just by name (not full path) in the declaration for a page?
That way, you can change the complete layout by just applying the theme to a
page or a whole site.
I know that if your master pages are XHTML, then you can change the layout
significantly with CSS, but there are...

I'm reading up on Themes and Master Pages in ASP.NET 2.0 but I cannot
seem to understand what the difference between the two are.
Do Master Pages essentially end up doing what Themes do? Is Themes an
older part of the .NET architecutre and simply included for backward
compatibility or are Themes and Master Pages two different things meant
to compliment each other?
Can someone give me some insight please.

First off. Hats off to MS to really doing a good job of major fixes on
VS 2K5. It is really a lot better. I have begun using Master Pages
with Themes but am a bit confused as to how to make the CSS styles in

most forums explain the css files in the themes are merged 'at run
time' to make the page you view).

When using master pages, how can I get an external style sheet applied to
the specific page and still see the effects at design time. I want to have a
generic style sheet and specific ones for each page.
The only way I can think to do this is to put a link tag in the master with
a specific ID but leave the source blank. When the page loads it gets the
tag from the master and then adds the src attribute, the problem is that you
cannot see...

Hi all,
I have enough experience with HTML/classic ASP to get by, and I'm trying to

I want to dynamically set my site's theme based on a setting stored in my
database.
I just hooked this up but get an error that the theme can only be set in the
page's PreInit event or earlier. However, it appears that Master pages do
not have PreInit events.
I REALLY do not want to have to stick the same code in each and every page I
create. How are you folks dynamically setting themes from master pages?
