Meta tags, keywords in ASP.NET 2.0 MasterPages

change text size: A A A

posted 3/5/2008 by vivek_iit

There are different approaches to this, but mostly I have seen the following being used often:

1. Using a contentplaceholder control in the HEAD element (see this article for details):

2. Using a BasePage approach, refer this article:

www.codeproject.com/aspnet/PageTags.asp

I really find the second method (using a BasePage class) much more cleaner and flexible as users can change the tags,title etc in the ASPX using page level properties. Though the same can be done in the first approach but using a contentplaceholder in the HEAD tag doesnt sound neat!

  • Dictionary vs Hashtable vs ListDictionary vs HybridDictionary
    7/22/2009
    Hastables are deprecated now because with .NET 2.0 and above the Dictionary class is introduced which is much more efficient because it does not need to box or unbox data while adding/retrieiving items. ListDictionary should be used when the number of items are small (usually less than 10). Else if you are sure that your list will have more items, than use Dictionary. If you are not sure about the number of items, then use a HybridDictionary .
  • Caching in ASP.NET: Velocity Distributed caching Framework
    7/16/2009
    Many beginner developers do not realize how effcient caching mechanisms can play a big role in increasing application performance. Most developers are accustomed to using the default In-Proc session state, or the Cache object to store the application related data. While such in-built caching mechanisms will work perfectly fine for most applications which do not need to scale to higher levels, it is always better to go for scalable caching options if your application might grow (both in terms of ...

  • Abstract classes vs interfaces c#
    7/9/2009
    When should you use Abstract classes for implementing dynamic polymorphism? and when Interfaces are your best option? Most beginners tend to get confused between Abstract classes and Interfaces, so here is a quick primer: In Abstract classes you can use "abstract" keyword to mark methods which *must* to be implemented in derived classes, and use the "virtual" keyword to create some concrete methods which can be overridden in derived classes. So Abstract classes allow you to create method signatu...
  • You must first install one of the qualified Visual Studio editions
    6/26/2009
    Today I was installing MS Visio Enterprise Architect and got this error the moment the installer started to load: "You must first install one of the qualified Visual Studio editions". Considering that I have already installed Visual Studio 2008 Architectecture Edition, this error was very frustrating...after searching Google I noticed this post which mentioend that the Visio installer looks for either VS 2005 or VS 2003 editions in the registry before proceeding ahead with the install.
