You can place contentplaceholders in your master but you will still need to use user controls. I used one for left and right sides of the page. Like this (in VB.Net). Dim UserCntrl As SideMenu UserCntrl = CType(LoadControl("UserControls/SideMenu.ascx"), SideMenu) If CStr(Session("MenuPos")) = "Left" Then Me.ContentPlaceHolderLeft.Controls.Add(UserCntrl) Else Me.ContentPlaceHolderRight.Controls.Add(UserCntrl) End If You can also access a placeholder from a content page. like this. Dim page As Page page = CType(Me.Parent.Page, Page) Dim pleft As ContentPlaceHolder pleft = CType(page.Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolderLeft"), ContentPlaceHolder) pleft.Controls.Clear() Dim pright As ContentPlaceHolder pright = CType(page.Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolderRight"), ContentPlaceHolder) pright.Controls.Clear() Dim UserCntrl As SideMenu UserCntrl = CType(LoadControl("SideMenu.ascx"), SideMenu) If Me.LinkButton3.Text = "Move Right" Then Web.HttpContext.Current.Session("MenuPos") = "Right" pright.Controls.Add(UserCntrl) End If If Me.LinkButton3.Text = "Move Left" Then Web.HttpContext.Current.Session("MenuPos") = "Left" pleft.Controls.Add(UserCntrl) End If "People who never make mistakes, never do anything."
