Customer Server Control Events

[Chris Kennedy]

This a newbie question but I would like to build a custom server control
which updates a database. While I have got as far as writing in HTML via the
HTML writer I am unsure on how to progress to putting events into my
control.

I am looking more for pointers and resources as this fairly in depth,
probably too much so for a posting.

My aim is to create a control to use multiple site which reads an XML file
relating to the individual site to add things like text boxes etc and use
the info in the XML file to dynamically figure out the database,table and
fields to put the info entered into the control. For instance I could have
the connection string and data adapter information etc as well as the
fields to add to the database.

You can try this http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/is...ng/default.asp

(I remeber the author, Dino Esposito, uses the word 'pagelet' which is the same as custom control. Pagelet was used in the beta version.
