Sample Code: Quick Intro to <asp:wizard> control in Whidbey

The <asp:wizard> control enables us to divide a large form into multiple sub forms.
This is otherwise traditionally done with ASP.NET v1.1 controls using <asp:panel> or <asp:placeholder> on one/multiple pages.

Handling Next/Previous/Finish can be done by setting the properties of the control

Some tags associated with the <asp:wizard> are 

<wizardsteps>
<asp:wizardsteps>
<stepnavigationtemplate>
 

Here is just a sample of how to use the <asp:wizard> control

<asp:wizard id="Wizard1" runat="server" onfinishbuttonclick="FinishbtnClick" 
	nextstepbuttontext="Next"  finishstepbuttontext="Finish" 
	previousstepbuttontext="Previous" sidebarenabled="false">
	<wizardsteps>
	<asp:wizardstep runat="server" steptype="start" title="Name/Password" id="Start">
                        Name: <asp:textbox id="txtName" runat="Server"></asp:textbox>
                        <asp:requiredfieldvalidator runat="server" controltovalidate="txtName" 
		id="RequiredFieldValidator1" errormessage="*">
	</asp:requiredfieldvalidator>
                        <br />
                        Email:<asp:textbox id="txtEmail" runat="server"></asp:textbox>
                        <asp:regularexpressionvalidator id="Regularexpressionvalidator1" runat="server"

                        </asp:regularexpressionvalidator>
	</asp:wizardstep>
	<asp:wizardstep id="step" steptype="step" runat="server" title="Address/City">

</asp:wizard>
