Hi,

It seems you're using a master page.

You should wrap all your controls inside your ContentPlaceHolder. No html tags inside, they should be in the master page.

Otherwise don't use any ContentPlaceHolder neither a masterpage.

Have a look at this: Multiple ContentPlaceHolders and Default Content (C#)[^]

Hope it helps.

Thank you for reply ...
FYI ... I just want to add a sample.asp page to my Project,yes this page contains Master Page too .. to get headers.

What header? html header? Why do you need a master page? Can't you just not reference it if you really need specific html tags inside that specific page?

Otherwise you will need to put all your common html tags inside the masterpage and only specific code inside the ContentPlaceHolder.

Also, check google on how to use master pages and when they're needed.

Ok ... i remove the Master page & Executed now working.But how to use this page(sample.aspx)in my Project with Master page contents?

You really should take a look at some tutorial on how to use master pages.
If you really need a master page, you will need to strip all the html tags and place only the content inside the ContentPlaceHolder. You can't have any html tags inside.

In the master you will have something like:
<html>
<head>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="HeadContent" runat="server" />
</head>
<body>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="BodyContent" runat="server" />
</body>
</html>

And inside your page you should have something like:
<asp:Content ID="uxContentHeader" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="HeaderContent">Content
<asp:Content ID="uxContentBody" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="BodyContent">Content
