Handling dynamically created controls

I am dynamically generating a number of button controls based on the results returned from a search carried out on another machine. When one of these buttons is selected I want to be able to go through the same event handler for each button but I can't seem to get to happen unless I regenerate all my previously dynamically generated buttons every time the page is submitted.
Is this the only way to do this as the original search can take quite a while to carry out but it is the only way to get the information back in order to regenerate the buttons again (which will not be used again) and it might return quite a lot of results thus I don't think I want to be storing the search results in a session variable.
Basically all I need is for the selected button's values to be picked up without having to regenerate all my dynamically generated buttons again. Can anyone help?

The way ASP.NET works, controls have to be regenerated on every request.
Remember that the page is destroyed after each request.

Hi all. My problem is that I can't handle events raised from child components within a composite server control when the control is created dynamically.

Hi, I'm creating 5 ImageButton controls in the panel control, and I have a unique ID specified for each one. When I click on any one of them, the Page_Load executes (Of course), but how do I know which ImageButton caused the post back ? Does it get handled in the Page_Load or do I need to create a new event handler ? Thanks,

Assume you want to dynamically add one to many link button controls to a web page dynamically at run time. Each link button needs to post back and execute code. As the link buttons are created at run time and the number may vary, we can't statically tie to the event to a control. I'm assuming I need to dynamically add event handlers at run time, and that one method could act as the event handler, with unique event args being created for...

I can think of a lot of reasons why this might need to be done but as far as I can tell it's not possible. I've been looking for a way to add HtmlTableRows to a table using a button click for a while and it seems it's not possible because the row that gets added with each click won't get recreated after a post back. After all the reading it seems that any dynamically created controls must be created in the Init event to be recreated after...

I have LinkButtons that are dynamically created in one of the PostBack events. They must be created in the PostBack event because one of the variables required to determine which ones to create comes from the event arguments. Because the LinkButtons are not created in the Init event, they will not exist when I click them to perform a postback. How do I handle the events for these LinkButtons? I appreciate any help you can give. Thanks. --...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
