My problem is,
I have a header usercontrol, footer usercontrol and many body files. I have menus in header to link all the body files. Now, How can i give the link from header usercontrol to other files.
I want to maintain only one aspx file with the header and footer. where, when we click the menu in header, the body page should appear in the same page. How to display the userontrols dynamically according to the menu selected????????

Pls reply soooon...Its very urgent for me.....

Hi I am sorry for late response. Just saw you post. Many techniques you can use. Like one of them is to add ControlName/ControlID in query string. then using swich case statement. like if you want to load login control. http://localhost/default.aspx?control=login then in code behind. switch(name) { case "login": Control c = Page.LoadControl(Request.ApplicationPath + "/Controls/" + "Login.ascx"); c.ID = "mycontrol1"; PlaceHolder1.controls.clear(); PlaceHodler1.Controls.Add(c); break; } I think this will work for you??????????

Hi Put a placeholder on your page. then use following code to load respective usercontrols. Control c = Page.LoadControl(Request.ApplicationPath + "/Controls/" + "Login.ascx"); c.ID = "mycontrol1"; then add loaded control in placeholder. PlaceHolder1.controls.clear(); PlaceHodler1.Controls.Add(c);
