How to create event handlers for Composite Controls. I have created a composite control with label, textbox and button. Like this
[code].....
Now how to write the code once a event fires like text changed or click.
I come from the Windows forms side and started using ASP.NET. I have not found how to use event handlers properly.Basically I want to create a shopping cart web control. When a purchase has been made I want to raise an event with products in the purchase. I would like to have the shared/static event and delegate on the web control and then, maybe in Global.asax (if not possible elsewhere) handle that event.
How can I do this? It seems I cannot access objects from other pages/controls.
My CompositeControl creates dinamically several RadioButtonLists according to the DataSource information. These controls are added to the Controls list and rendered in CreateChildControls event.
I need to create a LinkButton that clear a specific RadioButtonList selection and do a postback, to load the DataSource information again (some selections changes the data that need to be loaded from the database). For each RadioButtonList, I've put a LinkButton and assigned the Click Event to a method inside the same CompositeControl, to do the RadioButtonList cleaning.
Unfortunatelly, the LinkButton doesn't trigger the Click Event. In HTML code, the link has the "onclick" attribute setted with the asp.net event, but when clicked, nothing happens.
I am trying to build a custom composite control, which allows me to add custom content to each child control. It's a similar concept to what you have with a GridView and TemplateColumn. The markup used to place the control on the page would end up being something like this:
[Code]....
I have the code below, which allows me to put that markup on the page without throwing any errors, and it renders all the correct HTML, except it doesn't render the contents of the ColumnTemplate. I have replaced the Render() code with a comment because it's quite long winded and doesn't add anything important here:
[Code]....
I have tried to follow examples on MSDN and other forums but I can't make this work. I think I'm missing the code to render the contents of the template, but I don't know how to hook that up.

View 1 RepliesI have created two composite controls in the same assembly and registered that assembly in a master page
using <%@

tag.
When I try to use these controls using the registered tag prefix I am getting only one control along with the tagprefix .
How to get all the composite controls present in the registered assembly?
I am creating a composite control. On the selection of item in the dropdownlist, the result should be shown. But its mismatching the result. Here is the code for the control:
[Code]....
If I have a breakpoint on the selection index changed event of the dropdownlist, then on every selection it should go to the event. Problem is when I select an item which makes the "singlelineText" textbox to appear and after it I select any other item, it doesn't stop at the dropdown event instead it goes to the "CreateChildControls" method of the composite control which results in wrong data.
I made a composite control that contains a ListBox. I am using the Composite Control throughout my application but I can not bind the listbox in the Compositecontrol. I have setup a Public get to access my listbox in the composite control.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a PhoneNumber Control. I inherit from Composite Control. It contains 5 controls : 1 Label (Text to show before), 3 TextBoxes(area, prefix and line) and a Custom Validator. What I want to happen is the validator to validate the control is belongs to in two ways: 1. that the field is required and 2. That the COMBINED text of the 3 textboxes is 10 digits. I believe i can accomplish this with the expression ^d{10}$. Now I have it about halfway working, it will validate the control using client-side
embeded validation on a submit click, however I need the control to validate as soon as the text of any of the boxes changes. I know this is done on the aspx page by using a Custom Validator -> specifying client and server side validation functions -> and then at end of page doing ValidatorHookupControlID(control, va lidator). My goal is to do all of this within the control to clean aspx code and make it more reusable.

I have build a composite control containing a Label, TextBox and a ImageButton. The idea:
Label text | textbox | imagebutton used for triggering an event
This textbox has a build-in validation.
When the imagebutton is set, i will use this imagebutton as a trigger. This imagebutton has an onclick event. Nou my problem is the following:
When i have my textbox on a form an click a button to validate my textbox validation takes place correctly.
If my textbox has the imagebutton enabled and i click this imagebutton validation takes place.
In my composite control i have implicity set imagebutton.CausesValidation = false;
I would like to ask you what is the best practice for developing composite user web control with multiple controls inside from the stand point of dealing with properieties. In my situation I would like to use header menu bar with logos, buttons, java baset visible/hidden menus itc as web control. I was successfull in implementing new control in my project.
But my question goes to issue of properties for ALL OF controls. I know how to hard code all required properties like: text, visible, enable for all controls. It's a lot of work. ( This is the very edge of my asp.net comprehension ) Is there a more elegant way provide an access to controls's properties without hard coding seperatelly?
How to set default Height/Width property value of Composite control

I have a composite user control consisting of three standard table cells (a legend, an image with a tool tip, and a text field control). If I add these to a TableRow in my aspx page it works fine and produces legal HTML in my source. The below works fine ...
<tr><MyControl:dataField
ID="txtEmail"
DataType="Email"
runat="server"
/></tr>
However when I try to do the same programmatically (C#) the TableRow won't accept anything in its Controls collection that isn't a TableCell. I could make my control a nested table in its own right but I lose the alignment of my form items on the page with multiple controls, as each table aligns itself according to its contents. Is there anyway I can make the TableRow accept my control as collection of cells or do I need to do some casting or making my user control inherit some kind of TableCell attributes? I can also dynamically add my controls to a TableCell item which actually displays OK in IE but creates illegal HTML (<td><td></td><td> ... </td></td> - I assume this is illegal) in my resulting source. The code below DOES NOT work ...

In fact, the designer class is a copy of a sample class in MSDN and I only tried to customize it to work for me. I'm not sure if all methods are necessary or not.
I have the following two questions:
1- When I use this contrl in design mode, I can add or delete controls to it, in the html view, tags are not updated. so when I close the page and open it again, all changes are lost.
2- I have added this control to the same asp.net project that is using this control. Isn't there any way to have this controil in tool box?
according to what i read from web there 3 types of custom server controls

2.superclass
3.rendered

i am trying to search video tutorial for other 2 types .
I want to write own control which can contain other. And I want to define content of the control in the .aspx file where the control is defined. I have written such control. But now I have issue with ViewState of inner controls of my control. The following samle illustrates the issue: I defined two asp:DropDownList ID="ddl1" and ID="ddl2" One of them is inside of my control and other is outside. When posback is occurred asp:DropDownList ID="ddl1 loses state and becomes empty. How to say ASP.net to store state of inner controls defined by this way?

We are creating a composite server control. It will have few other controls. I am confused where exactly to write the code ie in which event. Is page life cycle and control life cycle follow the same event order?

Unfortunately, when I click the dynamically attached button, nothing happens.
