Exposing properties in a custom page template

[ake_krakbar]

Jepp, the property is public and fully accessible from the page when used programmatically...

[Ista]

can you paste the property definition please 1 line of code equals many bugs. So don't write any!!

[ake_krakbar]

Here goes: public class MunkebyPage : Page { [Browsable(true)] public string Testing { get { return testing; } set { testing = value; } } private string testing; etc... The problem could be that all other properties that you set in the propertybrowser are added declerative in some way. And this is not. Have you succeeded to solve this problem?

[Ista]

It works. When you open the form it defaults to the DOCUMENT object In the drop down choose your web form and you will see it Nick 1 line of code equals many bugs. So don't write any!!

Thanks for your reply! Selecting the webform (I suppose you mean the server side form) when working in the desinger is not possible. What version of Visual studio are you using? Is the designer in the "Design"- or in the "Source" mode?

[ake_krakbar]

Ah when working in source mode the server side form of course is selectable. But does the properties you have added to the page class show up under server side form? That doesn´t make sense at all...

[Ista]

Well everything is server side. For the class view, no you will not see it. In fact, you will never see it. But, when you open the WebForm to the html view. It is there. The source view you are reffering to is the class view. Which the designer view will never see. public class MyWebForm : MyPage you wont see the property in the class view. But showing the WebForm it will appear in the properties window 1 line of code equals many bugs. So don't write any!!

Hello Ista. Again, thankyou very much for your reply. Unfortunately I still don´t get this thing working at all. Are you using VS 2005?

[Ista]

VS2003 at work Okay so describe every step you took in detail. Lets figure out what you dont understand 1 line of code equals many bugs. So don't write any!!

Hello again Ista! Do you mean that you select this element in the code view, wich makes the property show in the property browser:

[Ista]

I opened the web form up in the grid view the peoperties window combo box defaults to "DOCUMENT" I then changed the combo box to display the form name, my case WebFrom1. Then the property appeared 1 line of code equals many bugs. So don't write any!!
