Issue with dynamically loading a user control on button click
- by Kumar
I have a page in which I am loading a user control dynamically as follows:
Default.aspx:
<cc1:ToolkitScriptManager ID="ToolkitScriptManager1" runat="server">
</cc1:ToolkitScriptManager>
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server"></asp:PlaceHolder>
Default.aspx.cs:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var ctrl = LoadControl("~/UserCtrl1.ascx");
ctrl.ID = "ucUserCtrl1";
PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(ctrl);
}
Below is the code for UserCtrl1.ascx
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server"></asp:Label>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button1" OnClick="Button1_Click" />
<br />
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder2" runat="server"></asp:PlaceHolder>
I am dynamically loading another user control when the Button1 is clicked
UserCtrl1.ascx.cs
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label1.Text = "UserControl - 1 button clicked!";
var ctrl = LoadControl("~/UserCtrl2.ascx");
ctrl.ID = "ucUserCtrl2";
PlaceHolder2.Controls.Add(ctrl);
}
Below is the markup for UserCtrl2.ascx
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server"></asp:Label>
<asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button2" OnClick="Button2_Click" />
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
UserCtrl2.ascx.cs
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label2.Text = "UserControl - 2 button clicked!";
}
After the page loads when I click the Button1 in UserCtrl1 the click event fires and I am able to see the Label1 text. It also properly loads the UserCtrl2, but when I click the Button2 in UserCtrl2 the click event dosent fire and even worse when I click the Button2 twice the UserCtrl2 control dissappears from the page. How can I fix this?
