MasterPage - ContentPlaceHolder - How to navigate to the ContentPlaceHolder "Child Page"

[Greg]

How do I programmatically load an .aspx page into the contentplaceholder?
Similar to what would happen in the "navigateURL" property when clicking on
a hyperlink on the master page. . .

ASP .NET 2.0


Thanks,
Greg

I don't think it is possible from your description you seem to be thinking of
master pages back to front. You can however programatically change the
master page that a content page is using. If you want to change the content
page and keep the master page the same this is simply two different aspx
pages that both use the same master page and you just link to them in the
normal way.

Thanks for the info. That's what I was afraid of. I think I'm in a
catch-22.. . . any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated. I'm
using a treeview on my master page, and depending on the selected node, I
want to display data into the contentplaceholder. Some of the "base" nodes
of the treeview are static, and I can enter a "navigateurl" into those at
design time. Unfortunately, once I enter a navigateurl property for the
node, the SelectedNodeChanged event doesn't fire, so I'm not able to
"dynamically" populate the children of that node. . . . . .. defining the
entire tree at inital load time of the masterpage would be a bit of a
challenge, and would definitely take a considerable amount of time for the
page to load. ..

I'll have to be more creative. . . . .

When you say you want to dynamically populate the the child nodes of the
treeview control, exactly how dynamic do you need it to be. I believe the
TreeViewControl can be bound to any XML data source not just a
SiteMapDataSource. Also this guy has written an SQL Site Map Data Providor
