ASP.NET equivelant for include files that won't cause problemsinto an *.aspx or *.master file, using some kind of inline code the way include files used to be used with Classic ASP (My boss wants something that I can simply say "Put this code in the head of the html", since half the webteam is not yet very familiar with ASP.NET). My original attempt was: <%=System.IO.File.ReadAllText(Server.MapPath("~/MyFile.txt"))%> This worked fine for a while on most pages, but then I came across a page that complained about something to do with not being able to add Controls to ControlsCollection because the page contained a code block. Most of the solutions I found while doing some research on this suggested using a databinding expression using <%# %>. The only problem with doing this is that you must call Page.Header.DataBind() before it is evaluated, which would require either: 1. A code block, which I cannot use because it causes the error 2. Adding code to the codebehind or a <script runat="server"></script>, which my boss does not want me to ask everyone to do I think writing a custom control would be nice, but once again that would be more than my boss would be willing to let me ask everyone else to do. Any ideas? Thanks. Can you use a Literal control and insert the file with the code behind?

not finding a way to put the info there, but finding an inline way to do it that does not require editing any other files. Using a Literal would require adding code to the codebehind to add the text. I know that I am turning down a very simple way to add the file, but unfortunately the people that will be using the code are still to ASP.NET illiterate to add code to more than one place (I have to give them 1 line of code that they can copy and paste into all of their standalone *.aspx files and all of their *.master pages.) Any other ideas?
