I get this error when i run my application with a custom web control that uses a template.
ERROR: "Page cannot be null. Please ensure that this operation is being performed in the context of an ASP.NET request."
Specifically the error occurs when i added the <span style="font-family:inherit; font-size:13px; line-height:16px; text-align:left CollapsiblePanelContainer<span style="font-size:13px; line-height:16px; text-align:left . see code below.
