Integration of multiple ASP.NET applications
-
Hello, I need to design a method of integration of several independent applications, this integration means: * have a common layout, css * have a common header, footer and menu * have a unifiyed login method Some of theses applications are "big", so I guess joining and compiling is not a good idea. The alternative I'm thinking of is creating a MasterPage or custom control which draws header, menu and implements access security. Then, modify ALL pages in every applicaion to be "child" of this MasterPage or include this control. How do you like this solution? Is there a better one? What is better, MasterPage or Custom Control? Thak you

I think you should do some research on SSO, REST, WCF and take whichever is suitable for integration. Offcourse you need to use Master pages, custom control, User control and CSS whereever required in you Master Project.

Master Page can be good idea.

Do the other apps use master pages, and, if so, can you have their master pages inherit from your new master page?
