I am passing an object from one asp.net page to another. I'm encoding the object as a Base64 string and passing it as a POST parameter.

Good ASP.NET books for the beach
or train, plane or couch. Most programming books are quite thick and require you to sit at a computer while you read it. Some of the thinner ones, like "Efficient C++" for example, are much better written and you can read them on the couch. I am looking for books like that on recent ASP.NET technologies. One example (though not reall...

Any way to prevent master pages from changing element IDs?
I'm looking at adding master pages to an existing site but have found that once I do, the elements' IDs get prepended with a code (e.g. ctl00_MainPageContent_).
