Dynamic controls and event wiring

To wire a Click event handler to a dynamically-added control (e.g.
LinkButton), you need to do so during the Load event of the parent (e.g. a
PlaceHolder).

The problem is, the Click event handler sets up a member variable that needs
to control how the dymanic controls are created in the first place!

Alas, I can't do so because it's already too late since the Load event fires
before the Click event.

Wiring the Click event handler during the PreRender event of the parent
doesn't work.

I played around with the idea of using positional static controls and
dynamically setting their Visible and Enabled properties, but it turned out
quite messy.

Is there a way to work around this problem.

I appreciate your feedback.

I'm trying to dynamically build several linkbuttons and wire them up to a method called OnLinkClick . . . For the life of me, I don't understand why the code below isn't firing the event. LinkButton lbBC = new LinkButton(); phBreadCrumb.Controls.Add(lbBC); lbBC.Font.Size = 11; lbBC.CssClass = "lnkBtnBreadCrumbProperties";

Hey guys, I am working on a web custom control that basically draws a table (ASP Table) with a few child controls in the cells. I have a command button inside one of these cells. The problem I am running into is that I cannot get the click event of this object handled. I have tried wiring the event with "AddHandler" among other things and that seems not to work neither.

Hi Group, I have an aspx form with a variable number of buttons added dynamically, with id's like b01, b02, b03... Whenever I click one of these buttons, the form is posted back. I need to find out which of the buttons triggered the postback *in the Page_Load* - here I have some code that needs to know which button was clicked so it will generate different output for the page.

hi all, I have this seemingly simple problem. I have lost a lot of time on it though. When a user selects a value from a dropdownlist (static control) a dynamic control is generated. I have to create the dynamic controls in the OnInit stage of the lifecycle. Since data from static controls is not yet available in the OnInit stage I can't know what dynamic control I have to create.
