Hi,
I get this exception when I use a themed css file. In my web.config
file I have:
<pages theme="dRise">
and the trouble page is a master page :
<% Response.Write( Header)%>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div class="FormCont ent">
<asp:contentpla ceholder id="ReportWizar d" runat="server">
</asp:contentplac eholder>
</div>
</form>
<% Response.Write( Footer)%>
Header is a property returning :
"<html><hea d runat=""server" "></head><body>"
and Footer returns:
"</body></html>"
The above code WORKS if I link the css file directely in the
masterpage, but if I use the themed css it generates the exception .
Can you help ?

Sam,
First off your thinking is right on the money. But your masterpage should
look something like this. More later.
<head runat="server">
<title>Sam's Master Page</title>
</head>
<body class="body">
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
The exception was caused by the response.write This writes directly to the
client browser so <head runat="server"> was sent directly to the client web
browser. ASP.Net could not find the head element (it was sent to client web
browser) and threw an exception "no head element to put your css theme link
in"
Also Sam please start using a code behind or <script runat="server"> script
blocks for your coding. <% %> style coding is obsolete.
Good Luck

Thanks for replying.
I actually do use code-behind, except in this one off circumpstance
where I've used <% %>. But this is not the problem, isn't it ?
I understood your explanations, but does this mean I can't write the
page dynamically when using a theme ?

Yes, it's exactly the problem.

No, it means that what you write dynamically gets sent to the browser
without the ASP.NET engine doing anything with it. Your problem is that
you need a <head> tag with a runat="server" attribute in a place where
the ASP.NET engine will see it.
Why are you using the Response.Write to write out a bit of static HTML?
This should go in the master file, that's what they are there for. DWS'
point was that the <% %> style of coding is a classic ASP one that has
basically no place in ASP.NET. If you add the <head runat="Server"> to
your master file, then your theme will work fine.
Hope this helps.

of course it would worked if I added <head runat="server"> directely
in the page ! But I can't do it this way.
all the html markups from my project are coming from a database (from
<html> to <body>, including <head runat=server>)
therefore I have to use response.write to write this html dynamically
before the rest of the page.
Is this clear ?
Do you understand my probleme now ?

You don't *have* to use Response.Write, see below.
Is this clear ?
It's clear, but it's going to cause you a big problem. To apply themes,
the ASP.NET engine needs to be able to parse the <head> tag of your
document at run time. If you are pulling this tag out of a database,
then it's not going to be available at run time, so you can't apply
theme.
Do you understand my probleme now ?
I do, do you understand now why it isn't working?
It sounds like you might need to rethink the way your data is stored.
Wouldn't you be better storing key information in the database and using
that as data for the tags, rather than storing the tags themselves?
For example, if you wanted to store a title for the page, instead of
saving the following in your database...
<head>
<title>my page</title>
</head>
you would be better storing just the text of the title ("my page" in
this case) and have server-side code like this...
<head>
<title><asp:Lit eral ID="litTitle" runat="server" /></title>
</head>
Then your page could extract the title from the database, and just set
the Text property of the literal to it. That sounds like a more sensible
system anyway, and would allow you to add the runat="server" attribute
to your <head> tag, allowing you to use themes.
Hope this helps

It seems that the only way to make themed AND classic Windows GUIs look okay
with tab controls and subforms, due to the color issue, is to place a one

a main form's tab control, completely covering the subform's detail, and
then pasting all the controls onto it. However, this is major cosmetic
surgery.

I decided to use a tab control for my latest project. On Windows XP, the
tab control itself is themed (tabs are themed), but the tab pages and
any controls I put on them are not themed (except for textboxes).
Done a bit of googling on this subject and I found a lot of people with
the same problem, but no real solution.
Has anyone come up with a good way to get controls to appear themed on a
tab page?

I have an application that works fine on localhost, but when it is deployed

Using themed css files requires a header control on the page. (e.g. <head

I am using themes and a single Master Page for the application, with the

the top of my head, the markup, though don't quote me on that. ;-)

You may be wondering why you would want to put your files “into” the database, rather than just onto the file-system. Well, most of the time, you wouldn’t.
In situations where your PHP application needs to store entire files, the preferred method is to save the file onto the server’s file-system, and store the physical location of the file in your database. This is generally considered to be the easiest and fastest way to store files.
