will the page having frames cause this to fail?

[Craig G]

i have the routine setup as below. the ctlCollection is populated with
Page.Controls. but it only ever brings back 3 controls even though there is
more than this on the page

the control types it returns are

1 x "System.Web.UI.ResourceBasedLiteralControl"
1 x "System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlForm"
1 x "System.Web.UI.LiteralControl"

if it is the frames that are causing the problem is there any other way
around it?

Cheers,
Craig

Try

For Each ctl In ctlCollection

If ctl.GetType.ToString = "Textbox" Then

If CType(ctl, TextBox).Enabled = False Then

CType(ctl, TextBox).BackColor = Color.Transparent

Else

CType(ctl, TextBox).BackColor = Color.LightGoldenrodYellow

End If

End If

If ctl.GetType.ToString = "DropDownList" Then

If CType(ctl, DropDownList).Enabled = False Then

CType(ctl, DropDownList).BackColor = Color.Transparent

Else

CType(ctl, DropDownList).BackColor = Color.LightGoldenrodYellow
