the fields (no controls exist on the designer).

particular webcontrol what would we the best way to handle that?

You can emit the required client script into the page with any of the various
Page.ClientScript methods, whichever is appropriate. Wnen creating your
dynamic controls, you can add the OnClientClick attribute to the control to
set up the event. Or, use the Attributes.Add method to do same.

When the controls load they can dynamically write their own
javascripts and associate client-side events with those methods. Look
at the Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock method.
