ViewState and ControlTree section in Trace of an ASP.NET page

[Carly]

Hi,

I guess is a simple question.
I have a very simple page that has a text box and a button (server
control) on a WEB page in VS 2005.
When the button is clicked it needs to write (via Response.write) what
was typed in the text box - in the same page!
Every thing works OK.
I enabled the trace so I can see the size of the ViewState.... however
it is 0 - for everything - in the control tree of the trace page
(trace.axd).
I am wonder why....

If I understand you correctly, viewstate is broken into viewstate and
control state with control state data being stored in the control state.
