Calling usercontrol methods in master page from content page

[Chevron Boyde]

Hi All

I have a masterpage, MasterPage.master with a UserControl on it called
MemberEventsControl.ascx. It has a method on it callled GetMemberEvents().

I have a content page called Events.aspx that uses my master page. I need to
be able to call the MemberEventsControl.GetMemberEvents() method from an
event on the Events.aspx page.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It' totally doable.
You will need to use ClassName attribute on master page and UserControl
<%@ Master Language="C#" ClassName="myClass" %>

Then you could do in (C#)
((MyUserControl)((MyMasterPage)this.MasterPage).MyControl).GetMemeberEvents()

Also you might have to use following on your page.
<%@ Reference Page="path to .aspx page" Control="path to .ascx file"
virtualPath="path to file" %>

So the page becomes aware of the UserControl or MasterPage. It's mostly a
hint to compiler what to compile first.
