Subclassing Page

R

Rotsey

Hi,

I have created class that subclass the Page class.

The problem is that it calls my OnInit methd ok and creates the HTML
but the Page_load of my webpage that inherits the base class never gets
called.

I have put a breakpoint on the OnInit for subclass and at the Page_Load.
The breakpoint in the Page_Load never accessed.

Here is the code

try to trim down your code when posting sample

try this

private sub PageLoad(o as object, e as eventArgs) Handles Me.Load


end sub


it might be posisble that u only need Handles for page_load in code
behind.i may be wrong.

I see this
Protected Overrides Sub OnInit(ByVal e As EventArgs)

but I don't see any override for Page_Load. The code sample is a bit
confusing.
