>>All my .aspx pages refer to Master page as MasterPageFile="~/Site.Master" I probably copied it from one of the default ASP.NET Web Forms project. Even though the Site.Master will be in the root folder of the site, when deployed at a customer. Now I have the following problem: for testing I want to deploy this project on my site, in a subdirectory. That is, the directory of the project will be:

www.mysitename.com/tempfolder/ >>When I navigate to a page of the project as

I have not tried it but I am pretty sure it would work. But then I will have problems when deploying on a customer site.
Thank you.
