Iterate through a ControlCollection from a CreateUserWizardStep

Question

Hello,

I am attempting to iterate through a ControlCollection in the CreatedUser event of my CreateUserWizardStep. I have a ContentTemplate that contains a table full of checkboxes that I am using to gather a user's availability during the week. For the sake of brevity I will paste my code on pastebin.

Here is a link to the .aspx page. Here is the CreatedUser event.

This loop:

foreach (Control c in CreateUserWizardStep1.ContentTemplateContainer.Controls)
    {
        if (c.GetType() == typeof(CheckBox))
        {
        }
    }

Gives me a WizardDefaultInnerTable instead of...well something easier to work with.

How do I go about getting at the checkboxes inside that second table? What I want to do is find the checked property and with that, build strings that I can put into my database. Any guidance is appreciated.

Thanks!

You'd have to recursively go through the controls. But, you could also just reference them through the id's you set.

The recursive solution would look something like:

IEnumerable<T> FindControls<T>(Control parent) where T : Control {
   T t = parent as T;
   if (t != null) yield return t;

   foreach (Control c in parent.Controls) {
      return FindControls<T>(c);
   }
}
