Introduction:
Here
I will explain how to create master page with menu in asp.net example or how to use
asp.net menu control in
master page to create menu and submenus. Here I will use sitemap and
sitemapdatasource control to bind asp.net menu in master page.
Description:
In
previous post I explained Breadcrumb example in asp.net, how to pass table as parameter to
stored procedure, Add Fade in effect to webpage using
JQuery
and many articles relating to asp.net, JQuery, Ajax etc. Now I will
explain how to create master page with menu in asp.net example.
For
asp.net
menu
control we are going to use sitemap and sitemapdatasource control for that first
create one new website once we created add master page, sitemap to your application
by following below steps
Right
click on website >> select Add
New Item >> Select SiteMap >> Click OK
Same
way we can add master page Right click on website >> Select Add New item >>
Select Master Page >> Click OK
Once
SiteMAP added to website open SiteMAP and write the following code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<siteMap xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/AspNet/SiteMap-File-1.0" >
<siteMapNode url="" title="" description="">
<siteMapNode url="Default.aspx" title="Home" description="Home Page"/>
<siteMapNode url="Forums.aspx" title="Forums" description="Forums Page"/>
<siteMapNode url="Careers.aspx" title="Careers" description="Careers Page" >
<siteMapNode url="Jobs.aspx" title="Jobs" description="Jobs Page" />
<siteMapNode url="upload.aspx" title="Upload" description="Upload Page" />
</siteMapNode>
<siteMapNode url="ContactUs.aspx" title="Contact US" description="ContacUs Page" />
</siteMapNode>
</siteMap>
|
Now open Masterpage and write
the following code
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title>Master Page with Menu control in asp.net with example</title>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="head" runat="server">
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
<style type="text/css">
.parent_menu
{
width: 110px;
background-color: #8AE0F2;
color: #000;
text-align: center;
height: 30px;
margin-right: 5px;
}
.child_menu
{
width: 110px;
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px;
}
.sub_menu
{
width: 110px;
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px;
margin-top: 5px;
}
.selected_menu
{
background-color: #FF6600;
}
.hover_menu
{
background-color: #990000;
color:#fff;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1"
runat="server">
<div>
<asp:SiteMapDataSource ID="SiteMapDataSource1" runat="server"
ShowStartingNode="false"
/>
<asp:Menu ID="Menu1"
runat="server"
DataSourceID="SiteMapDataSource1"
Orientation="Horizontal">
<LevelMenuItemStyles>
<asp:MenuItemStyle CssClass="parent_menu" />
</LevelMenuItemStyles>
<LevelSelectedStyles>
<asp:MenuItemStyle CssClass="child_menu" />
</LevelSelectedStyles>
<DynamicMenuItemStyle CssClass="sub_menu" />
<DynamicHoverStyle CssClass="hover_menu" />
<StaticSelectedStyle CssClass="selected_menu" />
<StaticHoverStyle CssClass="hover_menu" />
</asp:Menu>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
|
Now open Default.aspx page and add master page like as shown
below
<%@ Page Language="C#"
AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default"
MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master"
%>
<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
</asp:Content>
|

output that will be like as shown below
