copied!<p>Mystere Man, I read your question as asking how do we do it. For me, I have one word: Context. Keep it in context. I'll explain.</p> <p>You could build an entire web application from one page if you like. Technically it is possible even though it would be as confusing as all get out. I group my functionality together into logical pieces like "Selecting a Product". I used to make a single page grouping the process "Checking Out", but high discourage that now as my team has had to jump into the process at a specific points like automatically adding products to the shopping cart and then displaying the final page in the check-out process. (think of getting a free download: you don't need shipping information, billing formation or their name). With your numbered list above, if it is all on feature, then I would make it one physical page, but I'd break it into multipages if it turns out that I have to "jump into" the flow. If you make it one page, you need clear boundaries.</p> <p>I don't use cross-posting. I like to use multiview controllers. For me, it is important to clearly identify what each view needs for it to be active. In my page load event, I have one method call that looks at the querystring or session variables or cookies (these are my state holding containers) and, based on what is set, I make active one view. There is no more code in the page load, instead, I use the view's load event to be my pseudo page load. I code whatever that specific view is supposed to do. </p> <p>With that approach, I think ASP.NET's MVC pattern is where I should be going. </p>

Querying!
