Detecting Chnages in a Control Collection

Joe Loyd

I have a Web form made up of several panels of controls. On postback, I need to detect if any of the controls were updated. Is there something like a "Panel.Chan ged" event or am I stuck iterating through the control collection? Thanks in advance for any help...

Hi Joe,

There is not such a feature, you need to manually detect which control
changed.

Cheers,

Hi Joe,

Well in fact it's not, the panel is transformed on a DIV tag in the client,
it would be complex to add this functionality and frankly I think that it
has no big use ( I havent need it until now )

Now if you really need it you could try to implement it by your own. I
assume that you have a number of web controls inside the panel that do not
have the autosubmit set, if this is so you could try and change them from
webcontrols to HtmlControls equivalents, and using the Attribute collection
you could add a handler for the correct event ( onChange usually ) and in
the handler of it keep track of what control changed ( I would do this by
updating a hidden control )
using this technique you could know in the postback what controls were
changed.

Hope this help,
