I am new to ASP.NET. So I am trying to learn from the book I just
bought. There is a simple example of how to build a user control
which I religiously typed into the Notepad, but the results are not
what was expected.
Here's what I did.
First, I created the user control and saved it in a file
"SimpleHeader.ascx".
<%@ Control Language="VB" %>
<html>
<head><title>Simple User Control</title></head>
<body>
<h2>This is an example of a simple user control</h2>
<i>Simple Header!</i>
<hr />
Then, I created an ASP.NET page called HomePage.aspx that included the
control.
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="SimpleUserControl" TagName="Header"
Src="SimpleHeader.ascx" %>
<SimpleUserControl:Header
id="ctlHeader"
runat="server" />
Hello!
</body>
</html>
I stored both files in the same folder. When I try to view the page it
just shows the contents of the HomePage.ascx file.
What do I do wrong? How to make user control appear on the page?
Thanks.
