Navigation Framework

[Guest]

Hello all,

Does any know of / suggest a good framework to handle navigation in an
ASP.net app?

Many pages require a certain querystring parameter to work correctly and I'd
like to use some sort of frameowork that helps with this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jon

Jon,
A lot of that depends on which version of Visual Studio.Net you are using.
For example, 2005 has new navigation controls bult in (Menu Control, for
example) that facilitate this. For ASP.NET 1.1, there are a number of
navigation controls available from third parties (some are free). Check out
asp.net site in the Control Gallery. Handling querystring parameters can be
easily done with a small utility method.

Hi Peter,

I'm using 2003, but I was more after a framework rather than controls. A
bunch of classes that wrap up setting the NavigateURL on linksbuttons etc.

For example,

linkButton1.NavigateURL = thePageIwantToGoTo.ReturnURL(*required quertstring
params here*);

Thanks,

Jon

Well, that should be relatively easy. Just write yourself a class
"ThePageIWantToGoTo" and put in some static methods like
"ReturnUrl(NameValueCollection requiredQueryStringParameters)", implementing
your own custom business logic.
