Creating a webform at run time

[Guest]

I know that I can create web controls on the fly and add them to a
placeholder. The problem with that is that I don't get any view state that
way.
I have a series webform templates defined in a database. Now I want to
create a series of text boxes and other controls on the fly can capture the
data input. How can I do that?

If you are worried about dynamicly added controls dissapearing on viewstate,
you either have to roll your own solution, or you can useDenis Bauer's
(free) DynamicPlaceHolder control:

Using CSS you should be able to set a specific width and specify
overflow-x:scroll;
