How To Handle Events In Dynamically Added User Controls
Sep 27, 2011
I am trying figure out how I handle events in a dynamically added user control. Basically I can add user controls dynamically to my form (I am then storing them in an ArrayList in a Session variable that I use to reload them on my Page_Load). Each control has a button on it. However, whenever I click the button, the event never fires (code is never reached). I assume it has something to do with the control being dynamic, and when I click a button, it goes out of scope, and when I reload it something is lose in the event handling.
Here's my code for adding a user control:
Code:
Protected Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim alContact As New ArrayList
If Not IsPostBack Then
' Dummy controls for testing
Dim oContact As New ASP.ContactControl
[Code] ....

The situation:
I have user controls with buttons that have hooked events. Controls with events need to be initialized in Page_Load or earlier.
I wish to spawn these user controls dynamically by clicking an Add button.
It is important to remember that events, such as click events, are not fired until just before Page_LoadComplete.
Broken Solution A:
[code]...
Result: Everything works great, except the button within the added user control is inert.
The conundrum is: I need controls to spawned by a button click, which means I need to put my Controls.Add(...) code in Page_LoadComplete. Inversely, I need the controls being added to have working events, which means the Controls.Add(...) code need to be in Page_Load. I have a perfect dichotomy.

I have a user control, which is added dynamically, but I have noticed that when it is on the page and viewing the source that none of the controls within have been given unique ids. How do I give my user control and the controls within unique ids in order that I can use them in my events?

I have a C# web application that dynamically adds user controls to the default page for whatever "mode" the application is in. The problem is that it is not persisting these across postbacks. How do I persist these across postbacks and keep the content of the controls that are in the user control?
For instance, say I have a user control that creates a new tour record. The user clicks on the Tour item from the menu on the default page, it dynamically loads the tours user control. The user then fills out the form in the tours user control and clicks save. This is where the problem happens. When the postback occurs, the web application has no idea that the new tours user control was ever loaded. So, no save takes place because the Save button's click event never even gets fired.

I have ONE <asp:Button ID="btnAddUC" runat="server" ......./> and ONE <asp:Table ID="tblUC" runat="server"...> on my page. User clicks on btnAddUC, user control is added to the page [user can add 'n' user controls to the page]. here I have no problem, adding user controls to the page on user clicks.
My user control has ONE <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlItems" runat="server" ......./> and ONE <asp:CheckBoxList ID="chkItems" runat="server"..../>. I am exposing "ddlItems" by public method, "chkItems" is not exposed. "chkItems" is binded on SelectedIndexChanged event of "ddlItems".
Execution scenario:
User adds user control to the page, select item from the "ddlItems" ( Note: "ddlItems" is exposed by public property ) , "chkItems" is populated ( using ddlItems.SelectedItem.Value ) . User checks some checkboxes in "chkItems" and then decide to add one more user control. When the second user control is added to the page, checkboxes in the first usercontrol lose their state and apeears unchecked (NOTE: user checked some checkboxes and then added another user control).
I want to put checked beckboxes index in session ( Before another control is added, which event I should use, because at LOAD event there is nothing).
I was able to restict SelectedIndexChanged event to only that user control whcih generated it (checking _EVENTTARGET)

For a "dashboard" module I need to dynamically load user controls based on criteria as the user enters the page (role, etc). The problem is that the events are not being fired at all from the controls
As I understand it I need to load the controls in the OnPreInit method of the dashboard page, however I cannot get a reference to the Placeholder control at this point of initialization (i.e. I get a NullReferenceException); trying to load the Placeholder dynamically via Page.FindControl gives me, ironically, a StackOverflowException.
I've tried loading the controls in PreRender and OnInit as well but the events in the controls are not wired up properly and will not fire.
The code is basically this:

I have an aspx webpage in which an user control is added dynamically as follows:
UserControl testUsrControl = LoadControl("TestUsrControl") as UserControl;
testUsrControl.ID ="test";
Then I tried adding an event handler of user control inside aspx like below:
testUsrControl.Drpdatafield_SelectIndexChanged += new EventHandler(this.Drpdatafield_SelectIndexChanged);
But this line is giving error at **testUsrControl.Drpdatafield_SelectIndexChanged **. The error is "Drpdatafield_SelectIndexChanged" doesn't exist in UserControl.How can get the testUsrControl's events inside aspx page dynamically.

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 ...

I've got a custom ASP.Net web user control I've built; done this enough times before but this one is misbehaving and I can't spot why.
Where the calling page includes the user control directly in its markup, all is well and the control behaves as expected.
However if the page adds this particular control dynamically (to a placeholder in the master page, which is what's calling this whole thing) the elements within it stay firmly NULL - nothing from the user control gets written to the client at all, including static content within the user control.

I have a GridView of thumbnail photos within an UpdatePanel, with clickable icons in each row which each load a User Control containing a small Google Map into the relevant row. The idea is that the user can geotag (by clicking on the map) any photo in the GridView.
In the map User Control, there is some Javascript initialising the map:
function initializeMap() {
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('Map'), {size: new
GSize(336, 200)});
// set the map controls, set the centre, etc.
}
}
Problem is: I don't know how to call the initializeMap() method. Because it's dynamically added to the page, any attempt to link it to the calling button by "onClientClick=initializeMap()" for example, gives a JS error, saying the method isn't defined.
I've tried
ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "initializeMap", "<script type="text/javascript">alert('Here'); initializeMap();</script>");
but I don't think I'm on the right track with that one either.

I noticed that the asp:Button for example will work without javascript enabled in the browser. However any other control with an "OnClick" or "OnServerClick" event must use the javascript_doPostback.Are there any controls besides the Button that don't need to use javascript?I want to know because I want to be able to style the Control however I want without it looking like a button, and I want it to still work without the user having javascript enabled.

I do not know how this has started but when creating new pages in a web project using vb.net coding, when I add any control such as a button or something else and then do to the vb code page for it, I click the dropdown on the left and it does not show the controls. What would cause this? I am using a master page with the page and the controls are going into the content sections. If I add a line like:
Code:
[code]....
then I have events. But in another peoject I do not have to do this. Is there a reason why? Maybe a setting that was changed? I'm using VS2008 in vb.net language.

I am programatically adding a control to an aspx page and binding a server side event to an index changed event inside the control. (It's a RadListBox from Telerik's ASP.NET controls) The problem is that on the postback triggered from the control, the event doesn't hit its eventhandler because on the postback the control isn't defined. Is there a way to handle this without having to retrace the logic taken before and rebuild the controls so the events that stem from it are processed?

I have user control that inherits a base control class and these user controls are loaded using the LoadControl method, I can't seem to figure out how to raise events from user controls to the page that are dynamically loaded this way. Here is the delegate and event in the base user control class.
public delegate void SomeChangeEventHandler(object sender
, SomeChangeEventArgs e);
public event SomeChangeEventHandler SomeChangeEvent;
public virtual void OnSomeChanged(SomeChangeEventArgs e)
{
if (SomeChangeEvent != null)
{
SomeChangeEvent(this, e);
}

I have a blank user control (child) and during Page_Load i create some text boxes and a button. I also add an event to the button.
I then load that user control dynamically from a placeholder in another usercontrol (parent). Both controls are rendered correctly but when i click on the button, the event isnt fired. how to handle the event?
Child code:
[code].....
If i use the child control directy (ie without the parent the control) the click event is raised and handled nicely. But when i use the parent control, the debugger wont even hit a breakpoint inside UpdateButton_Click().

I am creating a survey page that has a list of questions and answers that can be radiobuttonlists, checkboxlists or textboxes. These controls are added dynamically to a Repeater in its ItemDataBound event using Controls.Add.
I've managed to render the page ok but when I submit the form and iterate over the controls in the repeater to get the selectedvalues of the radiobuttons and textbox values, FindControl returns null. What do I need to do to get get the selected values? I've tried iterating over the RepeaterItems but that returned null too. I've tried different types of FindControl but it never resolves the control types.
It works if I add a declarative DataBinder in the Repeater like this
<asp:Repeater ID="rptSurvey" runat="server" Visible="true" EnableViewState="true" >
<ItemTemplate>
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Question") %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
However, I want want to dynamically add the controls but in doing this i cant get the selectedvalues when submitting. This is tha main structure of my code...

I have a user control that is dynamically added to a placeholder control inside an update panel in my main page. The user control has a linkbutton where I try to handle its Command event. The first time the link button is clicked after the user control loads, the form posts back but the command event handler does not execute, although the user control is still on the screen. The second and subsequent times the link button is clicked it works perfectly. When the user control first loads and I mouse over the link button, the browser status bar says: javascript: __doPostBack('ctl08$lbTest',''). After the first click, when I mouseover the link button the browser status bar shows javascript:__doPostBack('ctl07$lbTest',''). Why the changed in id, I can't figure but it must be why it is not hitting the event handler the first time it's clicked. Here is the cs code that loads the user control:
