Formatting Controls in ASP.NET
- by Brian
I feel as though this this is a simple question, but can't find an answer anywhere. We've got an interface we're trying to move to an ASP.NET control. It currently looks like:
<link rel=""stylesheet"" type=""text/css"" href=""/Layout/CaptchaLayout.css"" />
<script type=""text/javascript"" src=""../../Scripts/vcaptcha_control.js""></script>
<div id="captcha_background">
<div id="captcha_loading_area">
<img id="captcha" src="#" alt="" />
</div>
<div id="vcaptcha_entry_container">
<input id="captcha_answer" type="text"/>
<input id="captcha_challenge" type="hidden"/>
<input id="captcha_publickey" type="hidden"/>
<input id="captcha_host" type="hidden"/>
</div>
<div id="captcha_logo_container"></div>
</div>
However all the examples I see of ASP.NET controls that allow for basical functionality - i.e.
public class MyControl : Panel
{
public MyControl()
{
}
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
ScriptManager.RegisterScript( ... Google script, CSS, etc. ... );
TextBox txt = new TextBox();
txt.ID = "text1";
this.Controls.Add(txt);
CustomValidator vld = new CustomValidator();
vld.ControlToValidate = "text1";
vld.ID = "validator1";
this.Controls.Add(vld);
}
}
Don't allow for the detailed layout that we need. Any suggestions on how I can combine layout and functionality and still have a single ASP control we can drop in to pages? The ultimate goal is for users of the control to just drop in:
<captcha:CaptchaControl ID="CaptchaControl1"
runat="server"
Server="http://localhost:51947/"
/>
and see the working control.
Sorry for the basic nature of this one, any help is greatly appreciated.
