I'm fighting a really strange bug that involves both a DataGrid and a
Repeater disappearing on postback. The strange thing is that I've
distilled the problem down to a simple program, that originally could
reproduce the problem, but now can't, even as I add complexity back
in.
The basic scenario is a custom DataGrid (just make a class that
derives from DataGrid) that has a LinkButton in a HeaderTemplate that
has a CommandName="so rt" and CommandArgument ="whatever". Only
DataBind if it's not a postback, and there you go. (I can give more
code later). It's actually a bit more complicated in that sorting and
paging are handled mostly within the control. I've intercepted almost
all the handlers I can to see what is different between the working
version and the non-working version (sometimes just a difference in
time of day it seems). Here's what I found.
Postback (when it's working):
grid OnInit
page OnInit
grid LoadViewState
grid CreateControlCo llection
grid InitializeItem
page OnLoad
grid OnLoad
OnSortCommand
Postback (when it doesn't work - and DataGrid disappears):
grid OnInit
page OnInit
grid CreateControlCo llection
grid LoadViewState
page OnLoad
grid OnLoad
The actual control is IDENTICAL in both cases. I'm pulling my hair
out to figure out what is possibly different. This problem is driving
me crazy, especially since I originally duplicated the problem in a
simplified test case. Once I changed a small something that caused
the problem to go away in the test case, I then went and changed it
back, and WHAMMO, it didn't happen again. In fact, I can't get it to
happen at all in my test case again, even though all the code is
almost a duplicate of my bigger app. Any leads at all will be greatly
appreciated. I'll post more code tomorrow.

Hi Tim:
I think we will need to see some more code. When you do the sorting,
is there any possibility you could be binding to an empty DataSource?

I am trying to use a datagrid to pull information from a database. I prefer

Perhaps I am using the wrong components....

I've found what seems to be a nasty bug in the DataGrid and Repeater

ViewState fails to map and you end up with nothing on a Postback.

this:
