how to include aspx without directive?

[Franz]

Hi,

I would like to include a aspx file inside a script-block, however, I don't
want to include that file by <!-- #include virtual="whateverfile" -->. How
can I do it?

Thanks.

Franz,
Normally in ASP.NET the "include" function is performed with UserControls
(ascx). Perhaps if you could be more specific about what you mean by "include
an aspx file inside a script-block"? What is the goal here?

Peter,

I have to include a aspx file (a menu) inside a normal web page. However,
the menu is only included under some conditions.

<%
if (/* some condition */) {
%>
<!-- #include virtual="menu.aspx" -->
<%
}
%>

I want to make the above to the following.

<%
if (/* some condition */) {
Something.Include("Menu.aspx");
}
%>

I would just create a user control for the menu (.ascx) and then disable the
control (visible = false) when the condition is not met.

Franz,

Like Peter suggested, convert your menu.aspx file to a user control (menu.ascx).
Then, you'll be able to include it real easily.

Here's a tutorial which shows how to convert a web form into a user control :
