Currently It has its DataContext objects declared as static in every page, and i create them the first time i find they are null (singleton, sort of). I need comments if this is good or bad.

Since all files in a web project are compiled into single assembly, then does this assembly maintain a directory structure? For example, if a file in a root directory references a file in a subdirectory, then how could this reference still be valid when the two files get compiled into same assembly?
