Inheriting another pages onLoad event

Hi, I have a page that does a whole lot of stuff in its onLoad event.

What I was wondering if it is possible to inherit this page (And therefore it functionality) in a new page and utilise the existing onLoad event of the inherited page by overriding the onLoad event of the new page.

Or, is it best that I just package all the existing functionality in a new class and use it that way even though webforms are actually classes....

I tried to specify two classes to inherit but I get an error message saying that I can only inherit a single class and its functionality.

Code:

---


' I thought that I could do this and get the code behind page to inherit both the webform that it is associated with and another webform

Public Class contact
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Inherits ProjectName.PageName

Ideas welcome, regards

Hi,

You can only inherit a single class but you can do multiple interface implementation with the Implements keyword BUT i doubt thats what you want as the interface doesnt contain any implementation

If you have a class that has to be inherited, separate that as a base class to be inherited by your web forms. It is more structured that way.

hth

Yeah, that's what I thought I might have to do, worth a try though :)
