LinkButton Inherited from WebControl problem?

[Dave]

Hi,

I'm inheriting a LinkButton from a WebControl....

public class LinkButtonFromWebControl : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl

However, in the aspx, if I add the "CssClass=", "CausesValidation=", etc attributes to this control...

<Custom:LinkButtonFromWebControl id="LinkButton3" runat="server" CssClass="linkButtonClass" CausesValidation=False>LinkButton inherited From WebControl</Custom:LinkButtonFromWebControl>

why aren't they displayed as part of the HTML output automatically when the control is rendered?

It's as if I have to manually add them the html output by using "class=" + this.CssClass etc. I would think if this control is inherited from WebControl it would do this for you??

Do I have to implement some type of handler? Thanks, Dave

Hi,

have you overridden something in addition to just deriving from WebControl?
