Two masterpages in one application problem

I have two masterpages in a web application. One is used for the login and
logout pages. The other is used for all other pages in the application.

The difference between the two masterpages is that on the main one I have a
user control in the left side that has the site navigation menu while the
login/logout masterpage has a non-breaking space in that table cell.
Everything else is exactly the same.

The issue is that the login/logout pages never display the images or the
styles while the main masterpages always displays everything correctly.

Suggestions for solving would be much appreciated!!

Thank you,
Stephen

Are both MasterPages in the same folder or, at least, at the same folder
depth...?

Sorry. Yes, both masterpages and all pages for the application are at the
root level of the application. The stylesheet is there as well.

Please check whether the following things are proper
1. ContentPlaceHol der is defined in the Maste PAge. You MasterPAge Login
controls are not living inside the ContentPlaceHol der
2. Content controls is defined in the LoginPage. Please made sure that you
have proper content pertaining to LoginPage in the ContentControl
3. Are you dynamically switching between MasterPAges during PreRender events ?

Answers:
(1) ContenPlaceHold er is defined in both master pages and no controls on
either page reside in the ContentPlaceHol der
(2) Proper content is in the ContentPlaceHol der on Login page
(3) No, I am not switching dynamically between master pages within the
PreRender event. An appropriately authenticated login redirects to the main
application page.

Thanks!!

You could try using just the one MasterPage, and instead, just put a blank
ContentPlacehol der with the appropriate Id to "nullify" the Login control(s).
Otherwise, haven't a clue, from reading the thread.

Peter-

Thanks for your suggestion. It worked perfectly. I am still trying (in all
my spare time) to figure out why having two MasterPages is a problem.

Cheers!

I am trying to build a new web application and trying to implement either templates or master pages in it.
