I have been wrestling with this code for about 2 weeks now. My goal is to
create a table for formatting purposes. I want to standardize it as a
webcontrol. I want all of the content to persist as top-level controls so
that they are visible to the asp.net designer -- PersistChildren (true). The
code works fine for run-time, but will not call AddParsedSubObj ect for
design-time. If the content is literal only, it will add the parsed sub
object "LiteralContent ", but if I add any other controls it does not
display.
How do I get my child controls to display properly in the asp.net designer?
Thanks to any who can help!

Here is a sample of what I am trying to build in its simplest format:
c# code:
namespace testbed
{
[ParseChildren(f alse), PersistChildren (true)]
[ToolboxData("<{ 0}:test runat=server></{0}:test>")]
public class test : Table
{
private TableCell innercell = new TableCell();
public test()
{
this.Rows.Add(n ew TableRow());
this.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new TableCell());
this.Rows[0].Cells[0].Text = "Header";
this.Rows.Add(n ew TableRow());
this.Rows[1].Cells.Add(inne rcell);
this.Rows.Add(n ew TableRow());
this.Rows[2].Cells.Add(new TableCell());
this.Rows[2].Cells[0].Text = "Footer";
}
protected override void AddParsedSubObj ect(object obj)
{
innercell.Contr ols.Add((Contro l) obj);
this.ChildContr olsCreated = false;
}
}
}
