Hi all,

I have a datagrid that you can sort on a column by clicking on the header text of that column. This is pretty standard and works fine.

Recently I decided to change the layout of my site and to use Master Pages rather than just including header and footer user controls on every single page. I have a master page that has my layout template, then in each page I have:

<mp:contentcontainer runat="server" MasterPageFile="mymastertemplate.ascx" ID="Contentcontainer1">
<mp:content id="bodyRegion" runat="server">
my individual page content goes here.
</mp:content>
</mp:contentcontainer>

This works fine on all of my pages except the ones that have sortable datagrids. It raises a javascript error when I generate the datagrid now, as it cannot find the column objects to sort on. Before the sort links looked like:

javascript:__doPostBack('dgClasses$_ctl1$_ctl0','' )

Now they look like:

javascript:__doPostBack('Contentcontainer1$_ctl0$b odyRegion$dgClasses$_ctl1$_ctl0','')

And it cannot find this object, so sorting doesn't work now. The javascript error is:

Error: Expected ';'

Has anyone else run into this problem before of having sortable datagrids not work when using Master Pages?

Thanks!
