ASP.NET 2.0 Dynamic CheckBox example?

[lucius]

Can someone provide a sample of how to add a new CheckBox control to
an ASP.NET page, dynamically completely in code-behind? I am having a
problem understanding which event should handle the control creation
and ViewState rehydration, and also let the checkbox click() event
participate properly.

Thanks.

something like this

CheckBox cb = new CheckBox();
cb.Text = "Select";
cb.AutoPostBack = true;
cb.CheckedChanged +=new EventHandler(cbChanged);
Controls.Add(cb);

public void cbChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CheckBox cb= (CheckBox) sender;
Response.Write(cb.Checked)
}

Thanks, but in which event is the control created? And will multiple
checkboxes get recreated on each page touch? And will ViewState get
rehydrated properly? And will the dynamic checkbox have access to
Session?

Thanks.

Hi lucius,

For dynamically created controls in ASP.NET web page, the creation and
event handler wireup should be performed in either Load or Init event(also
could be PreInit or other pre... in ASP.NET 2.0). "Init" is preferred since
LoadViewState occurs after "Init" event and before "Load" event.

Hope this helps.
