MultiView Contrtol will not work in content page

Question

I am fairly new to asp.net programming but have been doing OK. I have hit on an issue that I can't find a solution for. I have a Master Page that has a TreeView for navigation via the Web.sitemap file. This control reequires a in the MasterPage. In one of my content pages that uses the MasterPage I want to use a MultiView control. The Multiview control also requires a . If I try to put the form id in the content page it throws an error that only one is allowed. If I leave it out the MultiView control won't work at all. Does anybody have any ideas or is this just one of those things you have to live with?

Hi we can use Request.QueryString[parameterName].ToString() to get the parameter associated with the url.Please check for this.

I think I have stumbled onto the problem. The page I am having trouble with has an incomining parameter. In the pageload event I populate a text box with this parameter as follows: inLoan.Text = (Request.PathInfo).Substring(1); If I comment this line out and hard code a value to the textbox (which is used for SQL selection) the multiview control works fine. So as I originally said I am new to asp.net - is there some other way to pass and receive parameters between pages the will allow me to use the multiview control?

I have tried that but when I click on one of my view buttons I get the error the page cannot be displayed. I have taken the code out of the content page and made a simple page without reference to a master page of course I have to add in the form id but everything works just fine. It simply appears that for some reason my content page will not inherit the form id from the master. Thanks for replying

Hi In the content page by default it won't create any form element.If you created any form element just remove itany way it inherits the master page form element.
