Hi,
how can I have two or more user controls, both using a form, on one page so that they don't quarrel together? I'm aiming at a MemberLogin control and an AutoForm/Doc2Form control.
As I understand it, they have to both be until the <?ASPNET_FORM> tag. Now, if I do that and encapsulate all with this tag, their submit buttons then quarrel together and one influences the other. A member for example cannot log out, cause it's interpretted also as posting the AutoForm.
If I try to make two separate <?ASPNET_FORM> for each of them, it simply does not work, only the first one is parsed. Anyone got a solution for this? Thank you!

Hi deirh
I have the <?ASPNET_FORM> Tag in the main template and don't use form-tags in the controls.

You can't have a form within a form. But you can have multiple forms as long as each is self-contained. Just open the form around the macro, then close it before opening another form for the second macro. cheers, doug.

You should be able to disable the validation on the logout button for the member controls. Edit the control's ascx and add the following to the logout button's tag: CausesValidation="False" Case

Can you please elaborate? If I put everything under one form in the master page, the Logout button does nothing. Tried adding what you proposed into Code:<asp:LinkButton id="LinkButtonLogout" runat="server" CausesValidation="False"> and it didn't seem to change anything. Does this mean I cannot put two form-using controls together on one page? ie. Member Register Form together with Member Login on the top of the page?

You can definetly have mutiple "form-using" controls together on one page. You could look into using validation group. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms227424.aspx. i.e group all your member controls into one validation group.
