Master Page Properties persist?

If I have some Master Page properties, and assign them when the master page
first loads, knowing that I can access these property values in the current
Content pages, will these properties be persisted through every page, until
the browser is closed?

Re: Master Page Properties persist?

It depends where you emit the code for assigning these properties.
Different results for content page, master page.

Re: Master Page Properties persist?

It seems like each page load fires the page load event (non-postback) of the
Master Page

What I'm running into is that when I click a button on one page (which has
the properties loaded), I load a couple of sessions, and then
response.redirect to a second page.

In that second page's load event, I access one of the properties, but it is
'Nothing'. On further testing, apparently, the Page_Load of the content page
is actually firing BEFORE the Page_load event of the Master Page. So the
properties in the Master Page are not accessible to the content page

Once everything's loaded, I can access the properties at any time - no
problem

However, I need to access the Master Page's properties when the content page
is loaded

Is this possible, or am I missing something?

Re: Master Page Properties persist?

In general, no.

The master page, while it seems like a common container in the designer, is
actually a type of user control, which means it has page scope. Even if all
of your pages use the same master, the properties are not global.
