Hi,
I'm sure I've done this before, but I can't get it to work today...
I'm trying to add a DropDownList into a TableCell and wire up its
SelectedIndexCh anged event. I'm adding the dynamic control like this:
mtblCell = new TableCell();
mtblCell.Column Span = 2;
DropDownList cmbShipping = new DropDownList();
cmbShipping.Ite ms.Add(new ListItem("", "0"));
cmbShipping.Ite ms.Add(new ListItem("Unite d Kingdom", "1"));
cmbShipping.Ite ms.Add(new ListItem("Europ ean Union", "2"));
cmbShipping.Ite ms.Add(new ListItem("Rest of world", "3"));
cmbShipping.Aut oPostBack = true;
cmbShipping.Sel ectedIndexChang ed += new
EventHandler(cm bShipping_Selec tedIndexChanged );
mtblCell.Contro ls.Add(cmbShipp ing);
mtblRow.Cells.A dd(mtblCell);
I've already created the code for the event:
private void cmbShipping_Sel ectedIndexChang ed(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
BindData();
}
It all seems to work well enough inasmuch as the DropDownList certainly does
get created in the TableCell - the resulting HTML looks like this:
<td colspan="2">
<select name="_ctl0" onchange="__doP ostBack('_ctl0' ,'')"
language="javas cript">
<option value="0"></option>
<option value="1">Unite d Kingdom</option>
<option value="2">Europ ean Union</option>
<option value="3">Rest of world</option>
</select>
</td>
When I change the selected index of the DropDownList, it does the postback
as expected. However, the cmbShipping_Sel ectedIndexChang ed event doesn't
fire. I must be missing something totally obvious.
Any assistance gratefully received.

Hi,
For these events to get wired up properly, for a DropDownList, you need
to add the controls in the OnInit() method of the page. If you add
these controls only for certain rows, I would add them but make them
invisible until you decide they need to be shown.

Sorry, I failed to mention that I'd already tried that... No matter, I found
another way to do it - thanks for the reply.
What was the solution you found? Please share

Hi,
I have a scenario where I am dynamically adding a control from code when a
controls event is fired. The problem I have is that when the newly created
control is clicked, the click event does not fire. I have written a simple
demonstration that reproduces the problem and would appreciate if someone
could give me a hint on how this should be done
Many thanks

PROBLEM:
When a user control is loaded into a PlaceHolder control more than once, the
events do not fire on the first click of a control on the dynamically loaded
user control. In other words, the first time the control is dynamically
loaded, everything works fine. After that, if the control is loaded again
from the page button event handler, the user controls events fail to fire on
the first click

Hello,
I have a problem with events not firing. I've created a web user
control which renders a calendar using a table control. In two cells
I'm adding LinkButtons for "prev/next month". However, the events from
these are not fired.
In the PageLoad event I check if it's a PostBack. If it isn't, I'm
calling DisplayCalendar() to render the calendar. This part works and I
get the output. If it *is* a postback (i.e. one of the linkbuttons...

I'm running into a wall with a custom control that gets populated via
asynchronous I/O. Basically, my control takes its datasource and renders
some controls that have events (OnClick). However, there's the well-known
problem of dynamic controls not firing unless they are created during the
page's initialization, so OnPreRender is too late to create any dynamic
controls. That being the case, how can I populate a control asynchronously...

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.
