Hi,
first time I did this and just found out that there's a new HtmlControl on the loose in ASP.NET 2.0: HtmlTitle.
I created a sample master page like this and added the runat="server" attribute to the title tag and also gave it an id:
<%@ Master Language="C#" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<script runat="server">
</script>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<title runat="server" id="MyMasterTitle">Untitled Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:contentplaceholder id="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
</asp:contentplaceholder>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
After that I created a simple content page that has this master page:
<%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Master Page Fun/MyMaster.master" Title="Untitled Page" %>
<script runat="server">
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
HtmlTitle titleOfMasterPage = (HtmlTitle)Master.FindControl("MyMasterTitle");
titleOfMasterPage.Text = TextBox1.Text.Trim();
}
</script>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server">
Change title of master to:
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Button1_Click" Text="Change" /></asp:Content>
Now if you type something into the textbox and click the Change button then the page's title will change.
Grz, Kris.
