Hi Folks,
You must have seen the search box placed on the master page of the MOSS site master pages. Have you ever tried to find out how that thing has been placed there as we can’t have a web part on a master page? If you try n open that master page in SharePoint designer, you will find out that control is getting generated with just a single line of tag. That is actually a Delegate Control.
It is pretty easy to create and deploy the delegate controls. You just need to create a simple .Net User Control and deploy that as a feature in MOSS and Done… That feature will be available as a delegate control and you can access that just like the search box.
I will provide all the other details, including code in my next blog.
Till Then, Enjoy
