Server Web User Control or Web Custom Control
Ok, I made a DataGrid I like, stuck it in a Web Control Lib, and then to my toolbar. Now I want to take my nice little control and add it to a greater control, maybe place some buttons around it etc. I could always inherit from it in a new custom control and dynamically add the buttons, but I thought about using a Web User Control. I thought I could easily create a Web User Control, drop on my grid and the buttons on a form, and expose some properties and events, but once I got into it, I got a feeling that this isn't what a Web User Control is for. When designing a control li...

No server controls on web server
Hi, I built an ASP.NET site with the MS ASP.NET Web Matrix editor and "published" it to a remote server.  I can launch the home page, but no server controls are visible.  After reading similar problems in this forum, I created a /Bin folder and copyed the WebMatrix dll from my PC to the server.  Again, no server controls.  Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Tom Hi Tom, if you create a simple page that doesn't use server controls but does a response.write(DateTime.Now) does it show up in the browser? If not I don't think that your provider supports asp.net. There's al...

Custom Server Control Vs Web Parts, Any need for Custom Server Control
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.
