I have tried implementing this, but the extension methods are not working when I rewrite them in VB. I am trying to use a corporate master page in my MVC3 application. Right now I have my .Master and my .ascx page. I am confused on how to get it to show in my razor view.

my .ascx page:

<%@ control Language="VB" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl" %>


<asp:Content ID="Content" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentArea" runat="server">
<div>
Hello World

</div>
</asp:Content>

When I run it, it gives me this error: Content controls have to be top-level controls in a content page or a nested master page that references a master page.

I use my _ViewStart.vbhtmlto call on the .ascx page.

    Trying to hack webforms objects to work with MVC3 is only going to cause you trouble down the road. Redo the file as an MVC3 layout using razor.
