I wonder if DNN is intending to use the master page and theme in .NET 2.0 in the next versions to replace the current skining technical?

I really hope that it will be done soon as I think this would be a great enhancement. So I put a comment here in the hope that the DNN guys could see it :).

Anyway, many thanks to the DNN guys for their great work.

there are no plans to move to master pages at present, as we feel the existing DNN solution is more powerful. Whilst Master pages benefit from close integration with the IDE's, so that you can drag and drop elements, they are not portable in the same way that skins are i.e. you cannot zip up a master page and upload it to a site to change all visual aspects. This is probably the most important (and popular) usecase of the skinning implementation, and not one we would want to lose.

Thank a lots for your soon response :). But I think we can upload different master pages and apply it to the default page to make a new look and feel.

I think we could accomplish this by dynamically set the master page for the default page in code. Then for each place holder on the master page we add a <asp:Content/> control to the default page's control collection and set the ContentPlaceHolderID property to the place holder on the master page. Then we could load our module controls to these asp:Content control so that it can show in the correct place holder in the master page.

Would this be a possible solution? :)

Tripham:

Do you know of a way to theme a control such as a GridView in a module  programmatically? I've given up on ever doing it myself because I can't get around the DNN Default.aspx.

When I use:

  Sub Page_PreInit(ByVal sender As Object, _
         ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
         Handles Me.PreInit
           
             gv3.SkinID = "MySkin"

        End Sub

it has no effect. Just thought I'd ask in case i'm missing somthing.
Thanks
