creating custom tags 
hey everybody,

how do i create a custom tag? i like to create a custom tag, lets call it "REGCUSTOMER" and use it in my skin like all other tags.
currently i have a working tag, but i'm not able to implement some inteligence behind it.

in my skin i have the deklaration

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="REGCUSTOMER" Src="~/DesktopModules/GMC/regCustomer.ascx" %>

the code behind regCustomer.ascx works fine, except the calls to NavigateURL("RegisterCustomer"). The url which is created by dnn for this tag points to nirvana. how do i reference to my RegisterCustomer.ascx (not regCustomer.ascx) without to touch the core code? or is this a crazy idea ?

i hope my description is not as confusing.

kind regards, bernd

Re: creating custom tags 

Well i think it is a bit confusing...

lets break this down.

You want to create a Skin Control that points to another page within your DNN setup? It appears you already have the skin control working.

Next you want to have a Custom Call to NavigateURL where you are giving it just the name and have it create a link to ?some other control within your site?

Off the top of my head I don't recall how to do just the Keyword call for NavigateURL.  But I think what you want can be done through the SiteUrls.config - which is in the root of your DNN installation.   Edit that file have RegisterCustomer.aspx point to the tab you want and your skin control can navigate to that URL.

Hopefully my help was less confusing than your question.
