Ok, here is the first proof that since I got an MVP I didn't get any smarter...
I spent the last hour trying to figure out why the button in my control (inheriting from System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl) is not triggering the click event.
If you remember, a few days ago I posted a long post about how to properly handle server controls inside a web part and I lectured on the use of CreateChildControls and when to create the control. But in my WebControl it just didn't work!
Changing the inheritance to WebPart solved the issue, but I wanted a web control!
Finally a co-worker (Thanks Adam) reminded me that I had to implement the INamingContainer interface for the WebControl to support child controls properly. So I just added "WebCustomControl1 : WebControl, INamingContainer" to the class definition, and that's it!
I can't believe I forgot that, since I once found it the hard way, and I am almost sure I posted a tip about this before.
This works great, I just came across the same issue and would never have figured this out as the solution! Thanks alot.
ReplyDeleteYes, I've been having trouble with this all day, wasn't sure what was up with a fairly simple control.
ReplyDeletethanks for the help!
