title: Accessing control on page with master page from user control
body: <p>When accessing a control on a parent page from a user control that wasn't made with a master page, all I had to do was:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Page sample = this.Page;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And I got access the parent page and the controls on it.  But when that page was made with a master page, that same code doesn't work and I get a null exception for that control.</p>
  
  <p>What needs to change here?</p>
