I've seen reference to Nested Master Pages in some of the
documentation, but I haven't been successful in creating one in VS
2005 (Framework 2.0). I just did a search on it, and "How To:
Walkthrough" on Master pages listed VS 2008 and Framework 3.5 as pre-
requisites.
If I do an "Add New Item" selecting "Master Page", the "Use
MasterPage" check box is grayed out, so it won't let me create it in
VS 2005. Is there a way to "trick it"? Or is it just not supported in
the framework? (I tried creating a new Master page, and then adding
the "MasterPage="..." attribute in the head, but it didn't like that.
And I tried creating a WebForm page, then renaming it from Child.aspx
to Child.Master, and changing the "Page" in the header to "Master",
but it didn't like that either.)
Thanks in advance for any help. 4 1580

Munna,
Thanks for that link. It was pretty helpful. But it's still a step
beyond where I am. Specifically, he says in the first paragraph:
>For example, you could define a top-level master-page called “MainMaster..master” that defines a >common logo header and footer, and defines a content-placeholder for the page called “content”. >You could then definetwo sub-masters beneath it
Okay, I do know how to define the top level master. But how, exactly,
do you define a submaster?
I've tried adding a new MasterPage item, then adding a MasterPageFile
attirbute, and it didn't seem to like that, and I've tried adding a
new aspx page, then renaming it to Child.master and changing the
"Page" attribute to "Master", and it didn't like that either.
I appreciate the help, though. At least I know it CAN be done, and I
can keep on trying.
the trick to remember is that master pages are just control on a page
that refers to them (they do not contain pages). so a page can refer to
master1. master1 can refer to master2 (its the content for master2), and
master2 can refer to master3 and so on.

Well, I did finally get this to work. Just for anyone following this
thread:
I did an "Add New Item", selecting WebForm, and told it to use the
MasterPage Master.master. But I changes the name from SubMaster.aspx
to SubMaster.master
Then I went into SubMaster.master and changed the "Page" directive at
the top to "Master", and went into SubMaster.Master.cs and changed the
class that it inherits form System.Web.UI.Page to
System.Web.UI.MasterPage.
From there on, it pretty much seems to work as expected. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics
