Creating dynamic controls with events

[Gefry]

Hello everyone,

I wonder if it is possible to assign an event management control to a dynamically created AFTER the Page_Load?

The control is created as expected but the events are not taken into account.


Thank you in advance.

Easy way to check whether created dynamic controls are working appropriately you need to create window application that need to handle events their Attributes need not to be come in between while making any changes and adding controls dynamically, which will handle events, to that window.

   Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load  
  Dim btn As Button  
  
 For i As Integer = 0 To 10  
      btn = New Button  
      btn.Text = "Button" & i  
      btn.ID = "Button" & i  
     AddHandler btn.Click, AddressOf btn_Click  
     MyPanel.Controls.Add(btn)  
       Next  
 
 End Sub  
  
 Protected Sub btn_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)  
     Response.Write("You clicked " & CType(sender, Button).ID)  
 End Sub

You can get GetEvent method on the Type to get the EventInfo that
represents the event. Start creating controls in the Page.PreInit event. Move your existing code from the Load event to PreInit, and look to see if the page is posting back. If not, do what you are currently doing. If it is posting back, save the data about your controls (i.e. how many and names) in Session variables.Once you have that, you can call the AddEventHandler method on the EventInfo instance to add the event to the control.

please check the code and try for your reference.

Dim t As Textbox = pnlPanel.FindControl("txtText")

If t IsNot Nothing Then
    t.Text = "Found Control!
Else

End If
