I am looking to improve the performance of my site, not because it is performing badly but just as a general exercise. The usual suggestion for asp.net sites is to remove viewstate wherever possible. I believe this can be done by each control on a page separately or for the whole page. My question is if I disable the page viewstate will...

I have a view using a master page that contains some javascript that needs to be executed using the OnLoad of the Body. What is the best way to set the OnLoad on my MasterPage only for certain views? On idea I tried was to pass the name of the javascript function as ViewData. But I dont really want my Controllers to have to know about t...
So, from my experience, masterpages sometimes can lag when you do updates. This is not a new occurance, you make a change, you build, you go to test and the MasterPage is still looking for the old control. Anyone have any tips/tricks they use when this happens? Usually it goes away after a while, but I don't have a while. I am using ...
I want to dynamically add menuitems to my master page based on membership security login role. From what I've read RenderAction in the master page html could perhaps do this. Since I'm fumbling thru this I am not sure how it would look and how in the controller I check my current role. I am considering creating a table and relating the a...

We would like to have several internal web applications which use the same master page. Is there a way to store a master page in a common library referenced by all projects? ...
Hi, Would you guys think that a master page should be part of the company's framework or it should be part of each application? Or perhaps the company's framework should only have a interface to provide the least functionality to all master pages ? Currenlty we face two problems: Firstly, the original idea was to have a common layout f...
I have asked a similar question before, but I didn't have a firm grasp on what the problem I was encountering was. My problem is I cannot get the data from a TextBox residing on the master when the page changes. Here is what happens: MasterPage with TextBox and Button. Data is entered into the TextBox and Button is clicked. Form's ac...
I am creating a website that has 5 different sub-sites each with the same overall look, but each has a different logo and added navigation. What do you feel is a better approach: Use the new nested master page capabilities to create 5 sub-master pages. Use a single master page and dynamically load user controls corresponding to each s...

The menu will appear on multiple master pages (currently one for pages where users are logged in and one for pages where users are not). My current implementation...
This may be a painfully simply question for which I will be mocked but I am having difficulty in using filepaths in masterpages. I believe this is because if a page in a sub-directory to using the masterpage then the filepath is incorrect. To fix this I need to get the filepath from the root but I can't seem to get it working. I tried:...
Is there a way to find all web pages that implement a specific master page in Visual Studio? I'm looking for a shortcut like shift F12 that will find all usages of a master page. When I do it on the master page class name it only takes me to the design view instead of showing all pages that use it. I do have Resharper if there is somet...
