I am trying to export gridview data to pdf using the code provided on www.webcodeexpert.com/2013/06/bind-and-export-gridview-data-to-pdf.html.
Its working fine if i am not using master's content page. But on using content page it is showing error "A page can have only one server-side Form".
The reason i found is that on master page there is already a form tag and in content page i am trying to create a new form tag with runat="server" which is not allowed. Is there any solution to solve this problem?

Why are you trying to add another form?

because my gridview has a hiddenfield Control. If i don't generate dynamic form tag then i get the error 'ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_gridView_ctl00_hdEmployeeid' of type 'HiddenField' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.

But it is already in masters form.

Either remove form form the master page (if you're not using it), remove runat="server" from content page (use just form). Good luck
