Control. Is this possible?

Hello,

I have been creating a few controls and I have a problem.

I want to create a control that renders a TextBox, a Label, and a few
more controls.

Is it possible to create such a control without all these controls to
be wrapped in a Tag?

Thanks,

Miguel

Yes its possible.
You can use a UserControl for this requirements, or also a CustomControl
thats inherited from CompositeContro l
or also from any other control.

Not really.

Every time I create a custom control that inherits from WebControl or
CompositeContro l it renders as a Span tag with all child controls
inside it.
Of course I can change the render begin and end tag by using:

Public Overloads Overrides Sub RenderBeginTag( ByVal writer As
HtmlTextWriter)
writer.RenderBe ginTag(HtmlText WriterTag.Div)
End Sub

But what I would like is the control to render its child controls but
not having them wrapped.
Is this possible?

Thanks,
Miguel

Hallo Miguel

Yes, simply overwrite the whole Render methode of your control.
Or else for an other case, overwrite the property TagKey to set a specific
tag around
instead of RenderBegin- and RenderEndTag overrides.

In ASP.NET 2.0 you can now apparently do this: <asp:label runat="server" text="some browser" IE:text="any IE browser" IE5:text="the IE 5 browser" PIE:text="the Pocket PC browser" /> Now the tokens "IE5" and "PIE" are coming from the updated browser capabilities component. I'd like to do the same thing, but create my own tokens that have nothing to do with the browser capabilities component because I love the convenience this offers.

I am trying to display XML in a WebBrowser Control. I receive a data feed of XML and am trying to inject it into the control. I have not been successful in doing so. The only solution I have found is to write it to a temp file and then use the Navigate method to load it. As the control is capable of loading it from disk, I would like to find a way to skip the save/load and just inject. Thanks, Dave
