Defines a collection of register directives and the namespaces where the tag prefixes reside.

This element is new in the .NET Framework version 2.0.

<controls> 
   <add /> 
</controls>

Attributes and Elements

The following sections describe attributes, child elements, and parent elements.

Attributes

None.

Child Elements

Element	Description
add	Optional element. Adds a tag prefix to the collection of tag prefixes that are used during pre-compilation.

add

Optional element.

Adds a tag prefix to the collection of tag prefixes that are used during pre-compilation.

Parent Elements

Element	Description
configuration	Specifies the required root element in every configuration file that is used by the common language runtime and the .NET Framework applications.
system.web	Specifies the root element for the ASP.NET configuration settings in a configuration file and contains configuration elements that configure ASP.NET Web applications and control how the applications behave.
pages	Defines page-specific configuration settings globally, such as ASP.NET directives for pages and controls that are within the scope of the configuration file.

Remarks

The controls element defines a collection of register directives and the namespaces where the tag prefixes reside. This element corresponds to the @ Register directive on an ASP.NET page. The @ Register directive lets you specify the tag prefix for a user control.

Tag prefixes associate a namespace in ASP.NET to the assemblies and namespaces that must be included for COM and user controls to work correctly. The following information is useful when configuring the controls element:

If applied to a user control, you must define the tagPrefix, tagName, and source attributes of the add child element.
If applied to a custom control, you must define the tagPrefix, namespace, and assembly attributes of the add child element. The assembly attribute is not required, if the control is in the application code directory.

You can use the same tagPrefix value to map to multiple assemblies or namespaces.

Default Configuration

The following default controls element is configured in the root Web.config file.

<pages>
   <controls>
      <add 
         tagPrefix="asp" 
         namespace="System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts" 
         assembly="System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" 
      />
   </controls>
   <!-- Other elements -->
</pages>

Example

The following code example demonstrates how to specify values declaratively for several attributes of the controls element, which can also be programmatically accessed as members of the TagPrefixInfo class.

   <pages>
      <controls>
         <!—- Searches all linked assemblies for the namespace -->
         <add 
            tagPrefix="MyTags1" 
            namespace="MyNameSpace"/>
         <!-- Uses a specified assembly -->
         <add 
            tagPrefix="MyTags2"
            namespace="MyNameSpace" 
            assembly="MyAssembly"/>
         <!-- Uses the specified source for the user control -->
         <add 
            tagprefix="MyTags3" 
            tagname="MyCtrl" 
            source="MyControl.ascx"/>
      </controls>
   </pages>
