Possible to detect which server control was clicked outside of it'shandlers?

[Brad Wood]

I have some code in the OnPreRender event that I don't want to execute
when a certain server control was clicked (by the time any of that
control's events fire it's too late). I can't see any way to get to such
data but it must be there...

Sure. You can simply inspect the __EVENTTARGET & __EVENTARGUMENT
values in Request.Form.

except for <asp:button> and <asp:imagebutton> which do not use these fields
for postback. a safer way is to set a flag on the client handler, any check
it on the prerender.
