Hi!

How does a person add unique HEAD information such as meta-tage and scripts to the .aspx pages which use master.pages?

Thanks in advance!!!

<%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="Layout.master" Title="Hi" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder" runat="Server">

</asp:Content>

hi,

I guess u are using a master page..So u need to add scripts and meta-tage etc in the master page.Not In the aspx.page..

Go to the masterpage and add the neccessary things in the <head></head> part of this..

U can add <script />, <meta />, <link /> etc in the head of the materpage..

hope this will help,

-------

If u find this useful plz mark this as answer..

One way you could do it is to add code like the following to each page you want to have unique meta tags. You could put this in the page load.

Dim metaTag As New HtmlMeta
Dim HeadTag As HtmlHead = CType(Page.Header, HtmlHead)

metaTag.Attributes.Add(

"name", "description")
metaTag.Attributes.Add("content", "your description goes here")
HeadTag.Controls.Add(metaTag)

metaTag =

New HtmlMeta
metaTag.Attributes.Add("name", "keywords")
metaTag.Attributes.Add("content", "your keyword go here")
HeadTag.Controls.Add(metaTag)

As for the scripts, you can include javascript by using the following code in the Page_Load method of your content pages:

ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude("common", ResolveUrl("~/js/common.js"));

Thank you JWadsworth... you are always great help.

Your solution worked and I also found another.

In the MASTER page:

</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</head>

In the .ASPX page

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="Head" runat="Server">
<title>14ers.com</title>
<meta name="description" content="" />
<meta name="keywords" content="" />
</asp:Content>

Ah, good idea. I haven't seen that method. Well this thread should be helpful to anyone trying to accomplish what you were trying to do.
