Hi everyone,
I have a very weird issue. I have a UserControl that has some controls inside. I want to refer those controls after, in another postback. But when I try to get them the Controls property of my controls returns null.
I'm working on vs2008.
Here is the sample code:
public partial class MyUserControl : System.Web.UI.UserControl, INamingContainer
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (Control control in this.Controls)
{
Response.Write(control.ClientID);
}
}
private void MyTable()
{
Table table = new Table();
TableRow row = new TableRow();
TableCell cell = new TableCell();
CheckBox check = new CheckBox();
check.ID = "theId";
check.Text = "My Check";
check.AutoPostBack = true;
cell.Controls.Add(check);
row.Cells.Add(cell);
check = new CheckBox();
check.ID = "theOther";
check.AutoPostBack = true;
check.Text = "My Other Check";
cell = new TableCell();
cell.Controls.Add(check);
row.Cells.Add(cell);
table.Rows.Add(row);
this.Controls.Add(table);
}
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
MyTable();
base.Render(writer);
}
}
and the Default.aspx page is something like:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.cs" Inherits="Tester.Default" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="uc1" TagName="MyControl" Src="~/MyUserControl.ascx" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<title>Unbenannte Seite</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<uc1:MyControl ID="MyControlInstance" runat="server" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
I don't know if I'm lost in some part of the ASP.NET life cycle. But this situation is making me crazy. Any help would be very grateful.
