Problem with CheckboxList.Init

[John Smith Jr.]

I am trying to do an example where you programatically add items to a
CheckBoxList by modifying the Init event of the control.

I tried the following code:

private void CheckBoxList1_Init(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

string[] genre = {
"SciFi","Religious","Action","Comedy","Drama","Thr iller" };

int i;

for (i = 0; i < genre.GetLength(0); i++)

{

CheckBoxList1.Items.Add(new ListItem(genre[i]));

}

}

I have the following wired:

private void InitializeComponent()

{

this.CheckBoxList1.Init += new System.EventHandler(this.CheckBoxList1_Init);

this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.Page_Load);

}

Yet, when I do a debug breakpoint on the event method, it seems to never
fire, and the control isn't updated. It works fine from Page_Load though.
