WSS integration with custom page

[Pierre]

hi, we use FormBaseAuthentication in WSS 3.0.

I create a "new user" aspx page to let new user to create a profile. We want to use Teletik control (Panel, textbox, ...) in this page.
I follow the great article to enable Telerik and .net 3.5 on WSS. I try with the webparts example that you provide, it work good. But now I try to add some telerik control to my custom NouvUsager.aspx. If I simply drag and drop a telerik control on my aspx page, deploy it and try, I god a "could not load assemblies" error. (but the Telerik.web.ui.dll are in the GAC). 

my aspx code without the reference to telerik:

<%@ Assembly Name="Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c"%>

<%@ Page Language="vb"
    Inherits="ExtranetArbaultWssAddon.NouvUsager, ExtranetArbaultWssAddon, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=d71c63e255e32165"
    MasterPageFile="simple.master"      %>

<%@ Import Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages" %>
<%@ Register Tagprefix="SharePoint" Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls" Assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" %>

<%@ Import Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content5" ContentPlaceHolderId="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server">
    <telerik:RadTextBox ID="RadTextBox1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadTextBox>
</asp:Content>

My vb class linked in the Inherit section:

Imports System
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts
Imports System.Xml.Serialization

Imports Microsoft.SharePoint
Imports Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls
Imports Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages

Imports Telerik.Web.UI

Partial Public Class NouvUsager
    Inherits Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.UnsecuredLayoutsPageBase

    Protected Overloads Overrides ReadOnly Property AllowAnonymousAccess() As Boolean
        Get
            Return True
        End Get
    End Property
    Protected Overloads Overrides ReadOnly Property AllowNullWeb() As Boolean
        Get
            Return True
        End Get
    End Property

    Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init

        'Ajout du scrip manager au besoin
        Dim scriptManager As RadScriptManager = RadScriptManager.GetCurrent(Me.Page)
        If scriptManager Is Nothing Then
            scriptManager = New RadScriptManager
            Me.Page.Form.Controls.AddAt(0, scriptManager)
        End If


        Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(NouvUsager), Me.ID, "_spOriginalFormAction = document.forms[0].action;_spSuppressFormOnSubmitWrapper=true;", True)
        If Me.Page.Form Is Nothing Then
            Dim formOnSubmitAtt As String = Me.Page.Form.Attributes("onsubmit")
            If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(formOnSubmitAtt) AndAlso formOnSubmitAtt = "return _spFormOnSubmitWrapper();" Then
                Me.Page.Form.Attributes("onsubmit") = "_spFormOnSubmitWrapper();"
            End If
        End If

        Dim test As New RadTextBox
        Me.Controls.Add(test)

    End Sub

Like you can see at the end of the init page, I add a radTexbox (like in the webpart example) but nothing appear on the form. But with this code not error are raised.

Question:
1- It ok to replace the GetType(Webpart1) to GetType(NouvUsager) in this:
Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(NouvUsager), Me.ID, "_spOriginalFormAction = document.forms[0].action;_spSuppressFormOnSubmitWrapper=true;", True)

2- How can I add with drag and drop control to my aspx page without the could not load assemblie error?
3- Do you have a good sample for creating a complex ascx (usercontrol) with some Telerik control added into a webpart?

Thanks

Ok I fond some part of the problem. I use the wrong telerik control (the one for .net2.0). I change the Assembly for this one that use the good GAC dll.

<%

@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI, Version=2009.2.701.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

But now with this declaration, the page disply OK, but I alway got this warning on the top of my apsx page:
RadTextbox is ambiguious in the namespace telerik.web.ui

Hello Pierre,

Can you please verify that you removed all previous references to the RadInput.Net2 assembly, cleared the VS cache and restarted the development environment to ensure that the RadTextBox control source will be referenced from the Telerik.Web.UI source when building/compiling your project? Also verify that you reference the RadTextBox from the code-behind using the Telerik.Web.UI namespace instead of Telerik.WebControls.

This should help you eliminate the ambiguous error you receive.

Kind regards,
Sebastian
