Okay, before I really confuse anyone I have switched to Visual Web Developer 2005 EE.

I am using a free Tab Control from asplib.net and have the tabs within <ConentTemplate> tags, part of the control. I also have the option to insert them as separate pages which I have done for a different tabbed page and it works fine. I don't want to do it for this page though because it would involve creating a seperate page for each tab, and I have a save button outside of the tabs that works for all tabs regardless of whether the page being saved is new or is being updated. Having it on the page and having the contents it's saving on separate pages would involve making a new method on each tabs page and calling them, but any time I have tried calling methods on different pages I have ended up having to give up and find another way.

The problem is that the back end code does not recognize any objects referenced that are within the tab tags. I believe there is a way to to have them recognized by adding a line at the top of the class (an inherits statement perhaps?) but I am not sure. Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas?
