.Net 2, asp:Literal outside a server form = unrecognized tag prefix

hi,
i have a master page, and i want to put an asp:literal control in the
<head><title> section. but it won't build because it says it's an
unrecognized tag prefix.

if i put the control inside a server form it works fine, but i probably
don't want to move the server form to encapsulate the body element,
since that would not be a correct html structure.

any ideas?
thanks

Don't think it's a compile time error. just an IDE warning. I get the
same error report in VS.Net, but it compiles fine and works.

Also, in 2.0 there's a nice new property to the page class, Header.
Page.Header.Controls.Add(), might not be useful in your case (unless you
dynamically want to add a header), but thought I'd mention it anyways.

hi Karl,
thanks for the tip. it works great. just for any people stuck on the
same thing, it's dead easy:

this.Page.Header.Title = "Hello";
