Hi all,
I have two aspx pages:
Default.aspx with its code behind page of Default.aspx.vb
Home.aspx with its code behind page of Home.aspx.vb
The Default page in effect is just a template, the Home page will be the same but with some extra functionailty. I dont want to have to copy the code from the Default.aspx.vb to the Home.aspx.vb page since I assume there is a more efficient way.
Ive tried to inherit the Default code into the Home code like so:
Default.aspx.vb -
Public MustInherit Class DefaultCode
-
-
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
-
Home.aspx -
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Home.aspx.vb" Inherits="DefaultCode" %>
-
Home.aspx.vb -
Partial Class Home
-
-
Inherits DefaultCode
-
Now that just doesnt seem to be working, it doesnt seem to recognising what the DefaultCode is when im telling it to inherit it.
If i move the Default.aspx.vb into the App_Code file (im using Visual Web Developer) Home.aspx.vb inherits DefaultPage but Home.aspx wont run, there loads of errors.
Thanks, Ash.

Have you thought about creating a user control that will be used on both pages? The user control would contain the common functionality of the two pages. To me this would be an easier solution.
Nathan
Ya it's true user controlls are very useful and best way to accomplish you desired task.....
Um...am I missing something here? Wasn't the Master pages concept developed (at least in part) for this purpose? Put all your common code, stylesheet, etc etc in the Master page, when you create a new page, select the "Select master page" option and create page content...
Ben
Thank you all.
I thought masterpages were just for the HTML side of things?
Ive never used one, ill try one out after ive tried using user controls, another thing ive never used, any idea on how they would work in my case? any help would be appreciated, thanks.
User controls are fabulous when you want to dynamically use templates for objects on your page, when you build a user control, think of it somewhat like an active-x control or a class in that you can create properties which set/get values inside objects within that user control. The user control would hold code in its codebehind that pertains only to functions pertaining to that user control.
My personal opinion is that for templating whole pages, this isn't really the way to go - others may or may not disagree with me but I look at master pages, pages and user controls somewhat as a hierarchy. Where each of my user controls contains one or more controls/user controls; pages hold a bunch of user controls and a master page holds a template for a bunch of pages to provide centralized management of look and feel of your site, including global methods and scripts that should be available across the whole site.
As I said though, that's just my personal opinion, and doesn't mean that either way is more right or wrong than the other.

I have a 2 page Tab Control for users to add a Job in my application. The

Greetings
I am beginning a web app. I am using C# aspx forms for my web pages.
Is it possible to create/use one aspx file as a base from which to
derive other aspx files? I can not get this to work.
What I tried was this:
Create a new web project.
- rename WebForm1.aspx to MyBase.aspx
- Add (grad from tool box) a label to the html form
- Then create another aspx file (using "Add Web Form"). This produces
WebForm2.aspx.

Hi there,
I am starting on an ASP .Net project. I have some examples of using a base
class for pages to inherit from to allow additional properties to be used by
default. This seems like a good idea to me.
I have a namespace Company.Web. I have created a PageBase.vb file with a
PageBase class containing the the properties required. This class also
inherits the System.Web.UI.Page class.

I am just trying to decide whether to split my code and uses code behind. I
did it with one of my pages and found it was quite a bit of trouble.
I know that most people (and books and articles) like it because you can
split the code from the design. That is logical. But if you are the only
one working on the code, it seem a little overkill.
I use Dreamweaver to do my design and find it a bit of a hassle to have

Hello,
I have the following problem:
I have a class Foo, and a class Bar.
I want Foo to inherit from Bar, but i want to put them in separate
files Foo.vb and Bar.vb. Then i will use the Foo Class in a code behind
separate file called CodeBehind.vb
Then i will use this CodeBehind normally in mypage.aspx.

I've noticed that C# can only inherit from a single class. At the same time, the
CodeBehind in an aspx.cs file inherits from Page.
So what do you all do to reuse code in .aspx.cs classes?
Seems to me one has to create classes and make them members of classes in the aspx.cs
files.
Is that what you all do? (at least those of you who try to get re-use)
