iterate through set of controls in code behind on postback

[Oleg]

Let's say I rendered a bunch of controls with the same name and different IDs.
On postback, can I somehow iterate through these controls (checkboxes in
this case, but could be dropdown controls in the future) and get their values
and IDs
with all this done in the code behind page?
A small example would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Oleg

Sure, but you would want to use a recursive function to do this ideally, as
you may have nested Controls. Every Control has a Controls Collection, which
you can, of course, loop through. So, you create a function that takes a
Control as a parameter, loops through each of the Controls in its Controls
Collection, and calls itself for each Control.

I did something like this

Private Sub seperateControls(ByVal Cntrl As Control)

If Cntrl.Controls.Count > 0 Then

Dim contrl As Control
For Each contrl In Cntrl.Controls

seperateControls(contrl)

Next

Else
'setTooltipValue(Cntrl)
End If

End Sub
