Hi Al,

>I am trying to use MessageDisplay.aspx to present a user friendly message to the user when an exception occurs. It works fine until I changed MessageDisplay.aspx to use a Master Page. I thought that would be a reasonable thing to do.

I can see why you might want to do this. I just looked at a couple of my web projects and see I have created a new Message page with a master but the old one is still around also. If I get a chance this weekend I will look at that and see what I did more specific. I am curious about the code you changed above and wondering why you have to call FindControl on the master to get to them. Also, the only one form tag is correct you will need to limit yourself to only what is allowed inside the content holder. You may not have removed enough of the outer tags that no longer apply. Take a look at one of your pages that alreay use a master.
