UserControl values lost on PostBack

[Paul]

Hi all,

I have a very simple user control that contains 3 drop downs. Whenever
there's a postback the values of these drop downs are lost. I've tried
enabling viewstate everywhere without success. Could anyone shed any
light on what's going wrong?

Thanks,

Paul

Asx:

<%@ Control Language="C#" EnableViewState="true" AutoEventWireup="true"
CodeFile="DayMonthYear.ascx.cs" Inherits="Test.DayMonthYear" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="test" Namespace="Test" %>
<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td><small>Day</small></td>
<td><small>Month</small></td>
<td><small>Year</small></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><aspropDownList ID="day" EnableViewState="true"
runat="server"></aspropDownList></td>
<td><aspropDownList ID="month" EnableViewState="true"
runat="server"></aspropDownList></td>
<td><aspropDownList ID="year" EnableViewState="true"
runat="server"></aspropDownList></td>
</tr>
</table>

I dont see any probs with the posted code as such. I did try it out and no
values are lost during post back. Can you check again and see if it still
happens ?
