I know I can access the head section of a page which uses a masterpage programmatically this way (in code behind):
This is only an example (I'd like to insert scripts and styles etc.):
this.Header.Title = "I just set the page's title";
Is there a simple way to do this in a declarative way on in the aspx file itself?
Sometimes it would be handy to insert a client script or a style declaration or a link to an external resource.
You can do this by using content regions in the head
, in exactly the same way as you would in the body
of the page. eg, In your masterpage:
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/styles/common1.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="/scripts/common1.js"></script>
<asp:contentplaceholder id="ExtraStylesAndScripts" runat="server" />
</head>
And then in the page itself just something like:
<asp:content contentplaceholderid="ExtraStylesAndScripts" runat="server">
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/styles/extra1.css" />
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/styles/extra2.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="/scripts/extra1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/scripts/extra2.js"></script>
</asp:content>
For stylesheet you can use this :
HtmlLink cssRef = new HtmlLink();
cssRef.Href = "addins/main.css";
cssRef.Attributes["rel"] = "stylesheet";
cssRef.Attributes["type"] = "text/css";
Page.Header.Controls.Add(cssRef);
For Meta Tags :
HtmlMeta metaTag = new HtmlMeta();
metaTag.Name = "author";
metaTag.Content = "ScarletGarden";
Page.Header.Controls.Add(metaTag);
But there is no way to add external script files to header element.
You can add inside body element by :
if (!ClientScript.IsClientScriptIncludeRegistered("myExternalScript"))
{
ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude("myExternalScript", "js/myJSFile.js");
}
Hope this helps !
You can declare the page title in the content page declaration.
<%@ Title="Page Title" Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Subpage.aspx.cs" Inherits="Subpage" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" %>
