Dynamic controls losing values

[Raj]

Hi there,

I am trying to get this work but I can't figure a solution. I have a
table on a web page (.aspx) and creating the table contents
dynamically. I have two cells for each row of table. First cell is a
label field, and second is a radiobuttonlist. Table looks some thing
like

Your favorite color? *)Red *)Blue *)Green
Age? *)20 *)30 *)40

Here comes the problem. In the submit button, I am trying to read the
selection as follows:

RadioButtonList rbl;
TableCell tc;
string sText;
int nTotal = tblStats.Rows.Count;
for (int i = 0; i < nTotal; i++)
{
tc = tblStats.Rows[i].Cells[1];
rbl = (RadioButtonList)tc.Controls[0];
sText = rbl.SelectedItem.Value;
}
The above code will always return the first selection (In the above
example: Red, 20 etc) Even if you select Blue, 40 etc. Actually that's
what the default selections were when page loads.
I have googled it but couldn't find what I was looking for. I will
truly appreciate your input.

Thank you,

Raj

You have to re-create dynamically created controls on every postback.

Eliyahu,

I am doing that. It is just that it is not able to read the values
back. To keep it simple, I am not changing selections either. I just
want the same values that were loaded. Somehow it can't read. It will
always give the first item in radiobuttonlist even though it is not
selected.

Thanks,

Raj

I figured why that was happening but I still can't explain why.
Anyways, I was populating RadioButtonList with values from a global
file and that was causing it. Now I am reading the value into a local
variable and using it and every thing works.

Thanks for your time,

Raj
