Setting Up the Menu Control

You will need to add a Site Map file to your project, which serves as the data file for the SiteMapDataSource control//网站地图数据源控件 you added in the previous lesson. This file contains the hierarchy of the links//阶梯式链接 shown in the Menu control//菜单控件.

1.  In the Solution Explorer right-click the project and select Add New Item. Select the Site Map template and click on the Add button.

C#	VB

After it has been added, the Site Map file is loaded into //载入the Code Editor window.

2. In web.SiteMap replace//取代 the existing the siteMapNode element and its contents with the following XML fragment//XML代码片断.

<siteMapNode url="Default.aspx" title="Home" description="" >
<siteMapNode url="ContentPage.aspx" title="My Content Page" description=""  />
<siteMapNode url="Authors.aspx" title="Authors" description=""  />
</siteMapNode>

You have already added the Authors.aspx page to your project, but it does not yet inherit from//继承自 the Master Page you created. ContentPage.aspx is a page you will create in the next lesson//下一课中. It will inherit from //继承the Master Page.
