Oh, and btw, did you follow my earlier tips about moving the pages away from the App_Code folder?

Imar,

I'vemoved away the "About" folder to the Controls one and the problem went away;it does no longer exist, but when I look at the browser I have tow horiznotal banners on on the right and another on the left.

The code in AboutUs.aspx is:
[<%@ Page Title="About Us" Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/Master/Frontend.master" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="AboutUs.aspx.vb"
Inherits="About_AboutUs" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="head" Runat="Server">
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="cpMainContent" runat="Server">
<h1>
<asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button" />
</h1>
<h1>About Us</h1>

</asp:Content>]

I am lost. Please note that I am learning and and do not have a fraction of your expertise and for this reason I may not be able to do everyhting you ask me to do.

Thank you for your patience and great help.

Cheers

You should not move it to the Controls folder, you should move it to the root....

That makes sense for the About page:

Code:

 
<Wrox:Banner ID="Banner2" runat="server" DisplayDirection="Horizontal" ></Wrox:Banner>/>

How does the code for the Master Page look like?

I fully understand that. But I try to ask you things you *can* answer if you read them carefully. Posting relevant code for the Markup or Code Behind files, config file, moving files from the App_Code to the Root folder are - hopefully - all simple tasks....

For the purpose of the archive, do you know what fixed the problem?

I did what you told me: "You should not move it to the Controls folder, you should move it to the root".

I moved it to the root. Although I could not understand the reason or what happened, I was happy to resolve the problem and proceed with the next chapter, and hopefully when I practise more I'll be able to understand.

Cheers
