page events

Can you call the GetData function and the function that builds the table and
adds the event handlers in the OnInit function?

I need to do it after all the event handlers fire, so that GetData will
reflect the latest changes made by the event handlers...
thanks for the reply - Trevor

My thoughts are that the solution is getting the changes in the GetData
function (which should be called from the OnInit function). I haven't tried
using properties that early in the life cycle but I would try those. You
can also use a database or the query string. If you were really ambitious
you could decode the session state.

I haven't figured out a way to create functional event handlers in the
Page_Load function.

ASP.NET's nice easy way doesn't seem to work for dynamic web pages. If the
dynamic stuff I'm adding is constant/predictable (like nav bars, style
sheets, or such) then the OnInit thing works great. If the content is
highly dynamic then I tend to use XML and XSLT.

HTH,

The only problem with putting GetData in OnInit is that I won't get the data
changes made by my event handlers. I wish there was a way to make the event
handlers fire at a specific time during the load process. About decoding
the session state, I just got into .NET about a month ago so I don't really
know what that means. Anyway, I think I'm going to forget about using wired
event handlers, and instead I'll just link up my buttons to a client-side JS
function and use it to submit a postback form. I'm starting to feel like
I'm developing classic ASP again.... Thanks a lot for your reply.
