Controlling web control instances on Web Form
I have created a composite control, extending functionality of the Hidden Control. However, I would like to prevent the user from adding this control to the page multiple times. I only want one instance of the control on the Web Form. What setting in my project to I adjust to enable this functionality? I can not find it in any of the books that I have referenced. Is this a setting or is this code that has to be added to the inheriting class. Looks like there is no standard apporach. But I'd consider using static field to count number of created objects and throw exception if second object ...

Importing Individual Web Forms and User Controls from a Web Site
Is there a best practice for importing individual web forms and user  controls from a web site to a web application project (i.e., to ensure the .designer file is generated and all that)? On the new version of an existing web site, we're moving the WAP, but we're changing the project enough that I don't want to just upgrade the whole thing--I just want to import select forms and controls. So far, the best thought I've got is to do a fake upgrade and copy over files from that, but that's a bit heavy for my needs, so if there's an easier or better way to just grab the ones I want, pleas...

Web Server Control Containing another Web Server Control?
I'm building a web server control that needs to include functionality from 3rd party web server control, ASPNetMenu. My web server control needs to render ASPNetMenu at runtime to create a menu.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how to do this? Mike - Cache entire web sites at the client and server and keep cache current. Cache just got easier!
