Making web user controls (ascx) available to more than 1 web application

[Andy B]

How do you make ascx controls available to more than 1 web application or
vs2008 project? I tried putting it inside a dll but it wont let me. I
thought there was a project type for web user controls, but can't find it
now for some reason. What should I do?

Thought this might be interesting since I use a bunch of ascx. I followed
the public instructions using VS 2008 and I get a bunch of .compiled rather
than dll's. These .compiled files are all 1KB so not a dll.
