dear skinners,

Can somebody help me with following issues ?

1. Why I cant put content pane into some other runat="server" control ?? I've created skin (if interested please see http://ma.cenia.cz, source for free ;-) ). What I hate is that div that surrounds content pane can't be runat=server. page is splitted to 2 parts (navigation and content) by splitter. splitter is moveable (when client can support ClientAPI.ClientFunctionality.Positioning. splitter must be able to position change on server. but as content pane cant be placed in another runat=server control I must set its position like this: style="left:<%= SplitterPosition %>px;" (uaaa UGLY old asp code&design mix!!!).

2. is there any way how to keep user splitter position exceptof use cookies ? treeView serves site tree hyperlink as window.navigate(anotherTabUrl) ? I will loose postback = lost user adjust of splitter pos. I hate cookies way, because not everybody enables cookies....

thanx for hints

Adam

Any HTML element with runat="server" is a pane in DNN, and you cannot nest panes.

You can write the split vlaue to the page as a varialbe you use in javascript and move the splitter client side.

Timo,

U are not right. look at my site and see navigation tree which is dnnTreeView control. This treeView is normaly "nested" like this:

<asp:Panel runat="server" id="naviArea" CssClass="naviArea">
  <div class="ma21cprgt" style="position:absolute;bottom:10px;height:25px;padding-left:6px;">
   <dnn:COPYRIGHT runat="server" id="COPYRIGHT" />
  </div>
  <div id="LeftPane" runat="server" class="TreeViewMenu_Body">
  <dnn:TREEVIEW runat="server" id="dnnTREEVIEW"
    level="root"
    nowrap="true"
    TreeIndentWidth="3"
    IncludeHeader="False"
    ForceDownLevel="True"

...

and it works perfectly. I guess that ASP.NET 2.0 allows element nesting with runat=server normally as I read MSDN...

only problem I have is ContentPane element which causes site error (not replace my skin with noSkin skin).

Adam, you'r wrong; I am right ;-)

I wrote: "Any HTML element with runat="server"

The treeview is not an HTML element it's a user control, so I meant any regular HTML element, not being a user control or skin object.

Normally your <div id="LeftPane" runat="server" class="TreeViewMenu_Body"> should show up as a pane in the control panel..
