That's what Custom controls are for. Custom controls have great
reusability, but they're kinda hard to make.
User controls are only reusable within a single project but they are easy to
make.
Pick your poison.
Does anyone know the technical reason why user controls couldn't be
compiled into an assembly and shared with other web applications.
If the ASP.NET compiler can compile the user control pages at runtime into
an assembly then why couldn't this be compiled and then shared with other
web applications. Perhaps we could write a module on top of ASP.NET which
could re use user controls in other web applications.
