hi,

   i've created two custom modules (two usercontrols - one per each module) and i want to navigate from one usercontrol to another and also need to pass some arguments too. 

  my first usercontrol simply contains list of links which is dynamically loaded from my db and the second control is a very simle one which contains label controls only. when i click the link in first usercontrol, i would like to call the second control with the values passed from the first.

 so that  i created two modules to add my usercontrols (one module per control) and created two pages to add these two modules (one page per module).

 i followed the below mentioned  tutorials to create simple custom modules and to navigate to it.

ie) http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN_ShowMeThePages/
     http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/NavigateURL/

  but i've faced two problems,

1) the second usercontrol module does not display properly in the corresponding page, ie) if i dont set the "Key" value in the Module Definition Page of that control, then no pblm in the display.
  but if i set the Key value, then the corresponding page doesnt display mycontrol which supposed to display. (i need to use this Key value in my NavigateUrl Function)

  i checked authorization settings and all, everthing seems to be ok. what can cause this pblm?

2) navigateurl doesnt show my second  control. i checked the url in an address bar, it seems to be ok
ie)  "http://localhost/MyDnnSite/CustomModulePage1/tabid/56/ctl/SecondUserControl/mid/382/argument1/myArgument1Value/Default.aspx

any help would be greately appreciated!  thank you very much for reading this quite long question.

hi,
    thank you very much for your reply.  let me explain little more details.

1.  i've named my first control called "Products.ascx" which is under my desktop modules folder. 
     then i've created new module called "AllProducts" and add my Products.ascx control on that module.
     then i've created new page called "Products" and added my AllProducts module in that page. 
     after that i tested my new page.its fine.

2. i followed the same steps to create my second control called "ProductDetail.ascx" and 
    the module name is "myProductDetail" and the new page called "myProduct". 
    i tested, its just fine. But after adding ControlKey name in the "myProductDetail" module definition, my page wont display my "ProductDetail.ascx" control. if i take out that value again, it will be ok, no pblm then.

     and my idea is, when clicking on the Product's name listed on the page "Products" , open the detail page of corresponding product by passing Parameter to my "myProductDetail" module. so that i decided to set up the links using navigateUrl function on the "Products.ascx", the def will be
    
"Globals.NavigateURL(PortalSettings.ActiveTab.TabID, "ProductKey", "mid=" & CStr(ModuleId) & "&det=" & ProductName & ")"

Neither of the tutorials coveres navigating from one module to another. The NavigateURL tutorial is coviering navigating from one user control in a module to another control in that module.

It appears that what you want to do is simply have a hyperlink link that passes querystring parameters. Your modules will have code to detect those parameters and respond accordingly.
