Nick,

You can make a public property MenuColor in the master page. The content
pages can access it as this.Master.MenuColor. You will need to add a
<%@ MasterType virtualpath="~/myMasterPageName.master" %>

direcive to the content file. The master page can change the menu color in
the MenuColor's "set" part.
 
hi Eliyahu Goldin.

Thanks for your reply, which is really helpful.

i actually make it works by using function instead of property.

because i got error like lack of set access when i use property set .

do you know why?

thanks
