Using the same User Control multiple times on one page

[Raith]

How can I reuse a User Control multiple times on a single page?
I have one created that pulls and hyperlinks the most recent news items from the database.
I want to reuse it multiple times, one instance in each javascript dropdown menu on the page.
I plan to pass the catagoryID via each individual menu node, but my problem is in trying to register and reuse this control.
One always shows up alright and the other has nothing. I have tried registering twice above, using different prefixes, using different tags, etc.
Is it possible to reuse a control like this several times on the same page?

Thanks.

I create controls and reuse them an unlimited number of times in a
page.

Dim X as new coolControl()
Dim Y as new coolControl()

Controls.Add(X)
Controls.Add(Y)

I dont know the specifics from YOUR control, but i have over 50
controls, some extended from others, some brand new. Good luck
