Hello Rodchar

Is OnInit and Page_Init the same thing?

There are 3 different things.

"Init" is the event
"OnInit" is the method that raises the "Init" event
"Page_Init" (Or some else name) is the name of the eventhandler that is
attached to an (typically Init) event

If you want to handle the event, you can:

1. Wire up the Init Event and handle the event in a eventhanler methode (for
example: Page_Init)
2. Overwrite the "OnInit" method and implement some logic in there,
additionaly you can (or in some cases should) call the base.OnInit()
method, otherwise the implementation of the base class would`t run.

Using inheritance for web pages - why have a Page_Init when you can override OnInit?

by: | last post by:

I'm trying to better understand the use of inheritance vs. the implementation of a handler. I wanted to ask this question to the newsgroup. Each aspx page is a class which Inherits System.Web.UI.Page. Then, each page has it's own implementation of Private Sub Page_Load and Private Sub Page_Init to handle the Handles MyBase.Load and Handles MyBase.Init events (respectively). The programmer (you or me) is supposed to flesh out the...

Repeater failed to load the viewstate when Controls.Count was called in OnInit

by: Invalidlastname | last post by:

Hi, We are developing an asp.net application, and we dynamically created certain literal controls to represent some read-only text for certain editable controls.

In the code shown below, if I call Repeater1.Controls.Count in the OnInit (the code fragment was highlighted in yellow) , the viewstate for the repeater will be lost during the postback. You can re-produce this...

Timing issues with OnInit in derived class

by: tatemononai | last post by:

I've got a asp.net page that is derived off a custom class. The base class does some init stuff in OnInit that is needed by the derived pages. I'm having a timing problem with OnInit. The OnInit in the derived classes executes BEFORE the OnInit in the base class. I need it to be the other way around. How can I fix this?

What is the difference between Page_Init and Page_Load?

by: Nathan Sokalski | last post by:

What is the difference between the Page_Init and Page_Load events? When I was debugging my code, they both seemed to get triggered on every postback. I am assuming that there is some difference, and I would like to know what it is so that I can take advantage of it in my code. Thanks. -- Nathan Sokalski njsokalski@hotmail.com http://www.nathansokalski.com/

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
