Chapter 12. Master Pages and Navigation
Web sites look better and are less confusing to users when they have a consistent “look and feel” as you move from page to page. ASP.NET 2.0 facilitates the creation of consistency with master pages, which allow you to create a consistent frame in which each page will place its content.
Navigation adds to the user’s ease of use of your site by providing a site map and/or by providing “bread crumbs” that tell the user how he got to the current page.
By placing your navigation aides in master pages, you can provide consistent navigational cues to your users, making for an enhanced user experience.
