Can anyone tell me what the compiler is trying to say from this error. I created a web custom control ( not a web user control ) and I am trying to use it on an .aspx page.

This is the directive that is giving me the error:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="Tracker" Namespace="JAN.SJ.Web.Controls" Assembly="JAN.SJ.Web.Controls.PathTracker"%>


Any ideas?

Thanks

Yes. I have the dll in the bin directory. I dont have it as a seperate dll but it is a part of a namespace in the application. I guess you know that the application dll is built with all the sub-namespaces within it. Does that make any difference?

Unless PathTracker is in its own assembly apart from the other controls, I'm inclined to think you have the directive arguments backwards.

Code: 
<%@ Register TagPrefix="Tracker" Namespace="JAN.SJ.Web.Controls" Assembly="JAN.SJ.Web.Controls.PathTracker"%>

Also, is PathTracker a namespace or a class? If it is the latter, you should remove it from the directive.

Code: 
<%@ Register TagPrefix="Tracker" Namespace="JAN.SJ.Web.Controls" Assembly="JAN.SJ.Web.Controls"%>
