ok here's the story. I have a .Net control that i would like to use but only on certain pages, and here's the kicker. The .Net control is in the Site('Master') template. It is currently placed under the left side navigation and needs to stay there. I only want this .Net control to show up on a few pages but the left column needs to stay for every page. The question i have is "Is there any way to hide the control based on a page param or anything like that?". Any help is always appreciated.

Thanks

Probably the worst hack I can come up with currently:

Create a public property on your .net control. Render the control based on the value for that param.
I agree, it's a willy hack, but if it serves your goal....

I might look into a more elegant solution... Perhaps...
Anyone else has a better idea?

Hope that helps.

Just have the contents of your control inside some kind of Panel and set the visibility property based upon the current request context....
