Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to define a Wizard control to collect a user's name and address, with the option to enter a separate shipping address. If the user does not select SeparateShippingCheckBox, thereby issuing a request to add a separate shipping address, the Wizard control moves directly from Step2 to Finish. On the Finish step, the user has the option to return to the beginning of the Wizard control by clicking GoBackButton; however, it takes the user to Step2 because the AllowReturn property for Step1 is set to false.
Important
This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks
In this topic:
Introduction
You can use the Wizard control to:
Collect related data across multiple steps.
Break up a larger Web page used to collect user input into smaller logical steps.
Allow for either linear or nonlinear navigation through the steps.
Wizard Components
The Wizard control is made up of the following components:
A WizardStepCollection collection of steps that contain the user interface for each step, as defined by the page developer.
Built-in navigation capabilities that determine the appropriate buttons to display based on the StepType value.
A header area that can be customized to display information specific to the step that the user is currently on.
A sidebar area that can be used to quickly navigate to steps in the control.
Note
If you are using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, note that the ActiveStepIndex is persisted in Source view. If you change the WizardSteps property in Design view by clicking the sidebar buttons, and you then run the page, the first step of the
Wizardcontrol might not be shown because the ActiveStepIndex might be pointing to a different step.
Wizard Steps
Each of the steps in the Wizard control has a StepType property that determines the kind of navigation functionality that the step has. If you do not specify a value for the StepType property, the default value is Auto. The following table lists the available settings for the StepType property and the resulting behavior of the step.
WizardStepType.Auto
The navigation UI that is rendered for the step is determined by the order in which the step is declared.
WizardStepType.Complete
The step is the last one to appear. No navigation buttons are rendered.
WizardStepType.Finish
The step is the last one that collects user data. The Finish button is rendered for navigation.
WizardStepType.Start
The step is the first one to appear. A Previous button is not rendered.
WizardStepType.Step
The step is any step between the first and last. Previous and Next buttons are rendered for navigation.
Collecting Wizard Data
Using the Wizard control, data can be collected through linear or nonlinear navigation. Some examples of nonlinear navigation are skipping unnecessary steps or returning to a previously completed step to change some value. The Wizard control maintains its state between steps, so the data entered on a step does not need to be persisted to a data store until all the steps of the Wizard control have been completed.
Alternatively, if you want to persist the collected data to a data store as each step is completed, such as when the NextButtonClick event is raised, you should set the AllowReturn property of the WizardStepBase object to false so that the user cannot return to a previously completed step and change the data once it has been submitted.
Wizard Command Names
The Wizard control inherits the following command names from the View class and MultiView class: NextViewCommandName, PreviousViewCommandName, SwitchViewByIDCommandName, and SwitchViewByIndexCommandName. The Wizard control ignores these command names and does not include any special logic to enable these commands to automatically work for navigation. If a command name is removed or is missing from a button in the Wizard control, no exception is thrown. For example, if the StartNavigationTemplate button is missing a value for CommandName, no exception is thrown.
Dynamically Changing Steps
You can use the MoveTo method or the ActiveStepIndex property to dynamically change the step that is currently displayed in the Wizard control.
Note
If you programmatically add a WizardStep in the Page_Load event handler, you must add the navigation to that step prior to the page loading.
Wizard Appearance
The appearance of the Wizard control is fully customizable through templates, skins, and style settings. For example, you can use the HeaderTemplate, SideBarTemplate, StartNavigationTemplate, FinishNavigationTemplate, and StepNavigationTemplate properties to customize the interface of the Wizard control.
Note
Setting the FinishNavigationTemplate, DisplaySideBar, HeaderTemplate, SideBarTemplate, StartNavigationTemplate, or StepNavigationTemplate property recreates the child controls of the Wizard control. As a result, the view state for the child controls is lost in the process. To avoid this situation, explicitly maintain the control state of the Wizard control's child controls explicitly, or avoid putting controls inside of templates.
Note that the Wizard control does not support special Microsoft Internet Explorer rendering for non-standard or quirks mode. To get the best Internet Explorer rendering using the Wizard control, use the XHTML doc type, which is added by default in Visual Web Developer and Visual Studio.
Formatting Using Layout Templates
The Wizard control lets you specify the layout of the control without requiring you to use an HTML table element. Instead, you can use a LayoutTemplate element to specify the layout. In the template, you create placeholder controls to indicate where items should be dynamically inserted into the control. (This is similar to how the template model for the ListView control works.) For more information, see the Wizard.LayoutTemplate property.
Accessibility
For information about how to configure this control so that it generates markup that conforms to accessibility standards, see Accessibility in Visual Studio and ASP.NET and ASP.NET Controls and Accessibility.
