user control add code to <HEAD>?

Is it possible that my user control can add code to the HEAD of the
parent page that hosts the control?

Have you tried?

I know for sure that a custom server control can...

For example:

public class Head : LiteralControl
{
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
StringBuilder head = new StringBuilder();
head.Append("<link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href=\"");
head.Append(Utility.ApplicationPath);
head.Append("/styles.css\">");
head.Append(Environment.NewLine);
head.Append("<script language=\"javascript\" src=\"");
head.Append(Utility.ApplicationPath);
head.Append("/script.js\"></script>");
base.Text = head.ToString();
base.Render (writer);
}
}

That will only work if the user control is placed inside the HEAD
though, correct?

I am looking for a solution that will FIND the HEAD tag in the parent
control automagically.

<HEAD id="Head" runat="server">
<title>Test</title>
</HEAD>
user control page_load:
HtmlContainerControl head = (HtmlContainerControl) Page.FindControl("Head");
if (head != null)
{
Literal lit = new Literal();
lit.Text = "<meta something=something />";
head.Controls.Add(lit);
}

Doesn't seem "right" that your user control does this....
