"LinkButton must be placed inside a form tag with runat=“server”.

Control 'ScriptManager1' of type 'ScriptManager' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.

Solution 2

An Usercontrol never have the Form tag. when you use UserControl in your page it will automatically get the form tag through your page.

Note: There must be only only one form tag in a page.

you must:

1. remove the form tag from the ascx page (user control)
2. Place the user control between the form tags on the main aspx page like this:

ASP.NET

<form id="form1" runat="server">
 <usercontrol:header id="Header" runat="server" xmlns:usercontrol="#unknown"> </usercontrol:header></form>
