Can't include file in aspx-page
-
Hi all. I have a web site on an IIS written in ASP.net (C#). I want to keep the top, the left side menu and the bottom of the page in separate files, and then just include the pages into my aspx-pages, so that the menu only needs to be changed once. I have tried and it works if I'm refering to a page in the same virtual directory, but I just can't find a way to include files into my aspx-pages, when the files are placed at another server than the aspx-page. I tried using a component from http://www.apnsoft.com/?LM=Include\_Main&MD=Include\_IncludePageFromURL and it works but apart from the fact that it now takes like 2 years to load the aspx-page (ok that may have other reasons though I don't know which), there is no "encoding" property on their webcontrol so the swedish letters å ä and ö doesn't come out right. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm getting a bit desperate as the website is to be launched next week... Thanks /EnkelIk

IMHO, you'd be best served by looking into Web User Controls on MSDN. They are the ASP.NET equivilent to the old ASP-style include file. I'd recommend that you create a user control for the menu and one for the page bottom. You can then just add them onto the page as you would any other control. Unless you're attempting to interoperate with an existing ASP page, I can't see any reason that you would want to use an include file for your task. Hope that helps a bit. :) --Jesse
