Custom Panel
Can't figure this one out... seems like it should be a no-brainer. Is it
possible to create a UserControl that can act as a container a la the Panel control?... not a "naming container" or anything fancy.... just a simple container. Basically I have a pretty custom table that I'd like to reuse (code-reuse--- always a good thing). Seems to me that it should be as easy as creating a UserControl and plopping a placeholder in it for the area where controls can be added by the page designer. Wouldn't this be much better than MasterPages or things of the sort for creating truly clean websites? -- -C. Moya www.cmoya.com |
Re: Custom Panel
What you are talking about is achieved only via a custom server control -
which, depending on what you are doing, isn't a trivial task. A good place to start might be: http://scottonwriting.net/sowblog/posts/355.aspx But there's really no way to achieve this with a user control - you can add them to the toolbox :( Karl -- http://www.openmymind.net/ "CMM" <cmm@nospam.com> wrote in message news:%236PM1LoYGHA.4168@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > Can't figure this one out... seems like it should be a no-brainer.

Re: Custom Panel
Ugh. This sort of thing should be trivial. ASP.NET is like a Lexus luxury
car but with manual cranks to open and close the windows. -- -C. Moya www.cmoya.com "Karl Seguin [MVP]" <karl REMOVE @ REMOVE openmymind REMOVEMETOO .
