Setting a property value9/28/2006 5:46:51 PM

0/0

I have developed a site that uses master pages for its structure.  I am forced to use a specific header and footer and I have multiple master pages so I decided to store the header and footer as custom controls.

A web page (~/default.aspx) uses a master page (~/masterPages/home.master).  The master page uses the custom control (~/intStd/Header.ascx).  The custom control has a public property (pgTitle() As String) that I can set from the master page.

 My question - How do I set the value of pgTitle from the Default.aspx page?

Thank you for any help.

See if the following link helps.  If not, try search for "accessing control in master page" for past topics.

Thank you.  The post you referenced does discuss the exact problem I'm having.... but my site still is not working.  I'm sure it's a syntax problem on my part, but I don't know what I've done wrong.  Below is the code I'm using and the error I'm getting.

~/MasterPages/Home.Master

...
<%@ Register
    TagPrefix="IntStd"
    TagName="Header"
    Src="~/_intStdTmp/Header.ascx" %>
....
<script language="VB" runat="server">

    Public Sub SetPageTitle(ByVal sTxt As String)
        intStd_Header.pgTitle = sTxt
    End Sub

</script>
....
    <intStd:Header
        ID="intStd_Header"
        runat="Server"
        pgTitle="123" />
....
~/Default.aspx
<%@ Page
    Language="VB"
    MasterPageFile="~/MasterPages/Home.master"
    Title="Homepage"
    CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb"
    Inherits="_Default" %>

<%@ MasterType
    VirtualPath="~/MasterPages/Home.master" %>
 
~/Default.aspx.vb
...
Page.Master.SetPageTitle("test111")
....
 
Error:
Compiler Error Message: BC30456: 'SetPageTitle' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.MasterPage'.
 
Thank you very much for all of your help.

you need to cast the Page.Master object to your master page class before calling SetPageTitle

This should work in C#:

((Home)Page.Master).SetPageTitle("test111")  


About VB I'm not sure but you can try this:

Home masterpage=Page.Master
masterpage.SetPageTitle("test111")

Thank you for your assistance, but that did not fix the problem.  My understanding is the @MasterType line makes it so you don't have to cast the Master Page, but I did anyway to see if that would fix the problem.  I am still getting an error.

The new code:

Dim mpHome As MasterPage
mpHome = Page.Master
mpHome.SetPageTitle("Test111")
The error I get is:
'SetPageTitle' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.MasterPage'.
Thank you for any help.

The error I get is:
'SetPageTitle' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.MasterPage'.

Should be: Dim mpHome As Home. With your code above, mpHome is still a generic MasterPage type...

Hope this helps. -LV

That is exactly what I just found out.  I was unable to get this to work when the MasterPage used inline code.  I had to use a codeFile and reference the classname.  I'm sure there is another way to do it, but for now it works.  For anyone having a similar problem - below is the code I ended up using.

Dim mpHome As MasterPages_Home
mpHome = CType(Page.Master, MasterPage)
mpHome.PageTitle = "123"
The ~/MasterPages/Home.master page inherits MasterPages_Home from it's codeFile.  It has the following property.
    Public Property PageTitle() As String
        Get
            Return intStd_Header.pgTitle
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            intStd_Header.pgTitle = value
        End Set
    End Property
Thank you everyone for your help!

Get rid of the CType (the cast) there. You are casting back to a generic MasterPage, and while your specific code above works, it is logically incorrect and might fail if you make any changes around...
