Custom Server Control to render multiple Controls
I have a need to build a reusable "Custom Server Control" that will in turn render multiple controls at runtime.
The four controls I need it to render are as follows
<asp:Label ID="divLogin" runat="server" Text=" | " /> <asp:LoginStatus CssClass="footer" ID="LoginStatus1" runat="server" LogoutPageUrl="Default.aspx" /> <asp:Label ID="divAdmin" runat="server" Text=" | " /> <asp:HyperLink CssClass="footer" ID="btnAdmin" NavigateUrl="#" runat="server">Dashboard</asp:HyperLink></div>Has anyone got any insight into this?
Thanks in advance!

I figured this one out on my own.
Namespace ICMS.Controls Public Class DashboardLinks : Inherits WebControl : Implements INamingContainer Protected Overrides Sub CreateChildControls() Dim qs As String = HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString("ID") If Not CInt(qs) = Settings.PageID Then Settings.Dispose_Instance() Dim s As Settings = If(qs Is Nothing, Settings.Instance(Nothing), Settings.Instance(CInt(qs))) Dim divider1, divider2, divider3 As New Label divider1.Text = " | " divider2.Text = " | " divider3.Text = " | " 'Add the initial divider If _ShowFirstDivider = True Then Me.Controls.Add(divider1) Dim lb As New LoginStatus With lb .ID = "LoginStatus1" .LogoutPageUrl = "Default.aspx" .CssClass = _CssClass AddHandler .LoggingOut, AddressOf LoginStatus1_LoggingOut End With Me.Controls.Add(lb) If HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated Then 'Add the second divider Me.Controls.Add(divider2) Dim Dash As New HyperLink With Dash .CssClass = _CssClass .NavigateUrl = "#" .Attributes.Add("onclick", "openWin(" & s.ID & ",'Admin'); return false;") .Text = "Dashboard" End With Me.Controls.Add(Dash) End If If _ShowLastDivider = True Then Me.Controls.Add(divider3) End Sub Friend _CssClass As String Friend _ShowFirstDivider As Boolean = True Friend _ShowLastDivider As Boolean = False Public Shadows Property CssClass() As String Get Return _CssClass End Get Set(ByVal value As String) _CssClass = value End Set End Property Public Property ShowFirstDivider() As Boolean Get Return _ShowFirstDivider End Get Set(ByVal value As Boolean) _ShowFirstDivider = value End Set End Property Public Property ShowLastDivider() As Boolean Get Return _ShowLastDivider End Get Set(ByVal value As Boolean) _ShowLastDivider = value End Set End Property Private Sub LoginStatus1_LoggingOut(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.LoginCancelEventArgs) FormsAuthentication.SignOut() Try Dim httpContext As System.Web.HttpContext = httpContext.Current Dim vURL As String = httpContext.Items("UrlRewritingNet.UrlRewriter.VirtualUrl").ToString() Dim vQS As String = httpContext.Items("UrlRewritingNet.UrlRewriter.ClientQueryString").ToString() Dim newURL As String = vURL.Replace("?" + vQS, "") httpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(newURL) Catch : End Try HttpRuntime.Close() End Sub End Class End Namespace

Usercontrol vs Custom Server Controls, Any need for Custom Server Controls
Hello I'm new to ASP.Net so this is probably a stupid question but, is there any need to create customer server controls now that you can pre-compile usercontrols into a dll and thus easily share between applications? This blog post from David Ebb describes how to do it and the restrictions he note don't seem that bad (other than being able to embed resources such as images in the dll). http://blogs.msdn.com/davidebb/archive/2005/10/30/487160.aspx His article desribes the techniques for ASP.Net 2.0 and he suggests that there will be further improvements in .Net 3.5 in this ar...
problems listenening to events on a custom server control from another custom server control
Hi all,I am having problems listening to events on one of custom server controls(AddBookmark) from another custom server control(BookmarkList). The listener or the BookmarkList control has a property that can be set to the AddBookmark control (string at design but the reference is obtained at run-time). I am able to get a reference to the AddBookmark control and add a listener to it on the BookmarkList control on the OnPrender of BookmarkList. But the problem is that when the events on AddBookmark gets fired, the listener added from the BookmarkList is no longer present and the listene...

Hello I've just posted a similar question on why you need server controls when you can pre-compile usercontrols and redistribute them. http://forums.asp.net/p/1397433/3010100.aspx#3010100 I've seen lots of (usercontrol vs web part) but not much on web part vs custom server control. According to the MSDN site you can put web parts onto a normal asp.net page outside of a web part zone and they behave just like custom server controls.

Custom Server Control With Child Control
All, I am currently putting together a very simple control. The new control outputs a table with two rows. The top row contains a heading and the bottom row will contain any other content. The control as it stands works perfectly well and I can place text into the content row no problem. Now, to the problem. Once I'd completed the control I figured it would be neat to enable the developer to add controls directly into the bottom row (content row) of the outputted table. As you probably know the WebControl class has a Controls collection which the developer can use to add any other...

Custom Control within a Control Control
I am developing a custom controls that will render headers for different web sites. Within these controls, I want to place another custom control that will change the language. I created the language control and had it implement IPostBackDataHandler. This control works fine if I drag it on a new web form, but if I tell a header custom control to render it problems occur. The Language Selector custom control does not have a Page member anymore and the event handlers do not work. Does anyone have any experience with doing something similiar? Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, ...
