Setting Properties of User Control On Master Page

[Mick Walker]

Hi All,

I have a user control on my master page, which exposes 3 public
properties (all boolean). Basically by the values of these properties,
the user control builds a menu to for users to navigate through the website.

I am wondering, how can I set the property of a usercontrol contained
within a Master Page, from a content page?

Kind Regards

Usually by exposing them as Master page properties - as your user control is
"internal" to the master page, it makes sense to only manipulate them within
it.

Could you please give me an example of how to achieve this please?

--master.master--
<asp:Label ID="lblWelcomeMessage" runat="server" />

--master.master.cs--
public string WelcomeMessage
{
get { return lblWelcomeMessage.Text; }
set { lblWelcomeMessage.Text = value; }
}

--page.aspx.cs--
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnLoad(e);
this.Master.WelcomeMessage = "Hello World!";
}
