Question

Embed ContentPlaceHolder between double quotes

Answer 1

+1 A:

This is an issue with ASP.NET editor. It's not specific to MVC. I think the workaround is pretty good and I don't see a specific drawback.

Answer 2

A:

Not sure if I have misunderstood your question, but you can also add:

<body id="site" runat="server"></body>

And then access it on your page

HtmlControl body = (HtmlControl)Master.FindControl("site");
body.Attributes.Add("class", "LmpDemoRequests");

I hope I understood your correctly.

Answer 3

A:

Try declaring BodyID as a property of your MasterPage. Set its value in the View pages. Then you can do something like <html> <body='<%= BodyID %>'> </body </html>

I tried doing this before, but the problem i had was that the BodyId would be set by the child view page...so by the time the child view page gets rendered, its too late for the master page to read the value.

I just tested this and it worked for me. Did you set the property value in the Page_Load event of the View Page?

dr 2009-05-01 18:38:02

Yeah you know what, I think i was trying to set the value within the content of the actual view page itself which I realize isnt correct...so I think your way might be the way to go.
