Field values are not stored in the viewstate. By design a web page post
field values to the server. The viewstate was created to store other
values. So IMO your controls are just reinitialized from postback values.
yes. that's exactly what i'm seeing. what i'm trying to do is stop the asp
net engine from repopulating these fields based on the posted back data and
instead use the values i'm assigning as the dynamically created controls are
initialized. i modified my page so that when the user drop down list is
changed (causing a postback event) i capture the selected user to session
and then response.redirect back to the same page. then, within page_load i
get the selected user and call my routine to recreate the dynamic controls
with the appropriate values. this works fine. so, it's something in the
postback event i need to control, but how? if the solution is to rebind my
data, in which event handler should it go? in other words, which event would
fire after .net is done repopulating the form fields?

Double check your code. You likely forgot to initialize the values from
the db after a postback ( it's likely that usually you don't bind again on
a postback because the data are what you want to show but in this
particular case the postback change the current set of data you wan't to
display so you should bind again to your data).

>i've got a simple page with a dropdown list of employees and a series of
checkboxs showing their skills. the checkboxs are created dynamically
from a sql statement and viewstate = false is set on each one. once the
dropdown changes from one employee to another, the checkboxes are all
recreated and i check the database to see if that particular employee has
that skill. if so, i set the checkbox's checked state to true. however,
when i look at the newly rendered page, the only checkboxs that are
checked are those that i've manully checked. i could set the viewstate in
the page directive, but that applies to all controls and i want the page
to remember which employee was last selected.
so, it looks like my script is initializing the checkboxes to the correct
value initially, but after that .net steps in and sets them back to what
was last posted even though i've set viewstate to all checkbox controls
to false.
anybody got any ideas what i'd doing wrong here?
tks
