Custom event from a custom web control is fired twice

S

SammyBar

Hi all,

I created a custom control that fires a custom event, but when it is fired,
the event is received twice...
I have cooked this control from different sources on the Internet an I fear
I'm missing something.
What can be wrong?

It follows a resumed version of the control. It displays a list of files.
This is rendered as a serie of <input type="image">. When the user clicks on
an image an event is sent back to server with the key of the Dictionary
entry selected. This is the event that gets fired twice, I don't know why..

Any hint is welcomed
Thanks in advance
Sammy

// this is the custom argument to the custom event. It only defines a
property: DownloadKey

public class DownloadClickEventArgs : EventArgs

private string downloadKey;

public DownloadClickEventArgs(string aDownloadKey) { downloadKey =
aDownloadKey; }

public string DownloadKey

set { downloadKey = value; }

// Putting a breakpoint here it is fired twice

<form id="form1" runat="server">

<div>

</form>

//--- The Code behind ---

string key = e.DownloadKey;

Download d = DownloadsList1.DownloadsDictionary[key];

Hi Sammy,

An event thrown twice could be caused by the AutoEventWireUp="true"
declaration. You have the event handler already defined in the ASPX code.

Cheers,
Erjan
