want to have <cc:UserControl>some text and tags</cc:UserControl>... How?

[ThunderMusic]

Hi
I want to do just like in the subject ... to have some text and tags
between the start and end tags of my user-control.

Is there a simple way of doing that? for instance, between the tags, there
would be a table with <table>, <tr> and <td> and all the stuff I could need.
but everytime I try puting something between the tags, I get an error.

My control is all done, only this functionality is missing. Can someone help
me please?

Thanks

Hi,

have you looked at the ParseChildrenAttribute? Under VS 2003, the help
topic is

ms-help://MS.VSCC.2003/MS.MSDNQTR.2003FEB.1033/cpguide/html/cpconusingparsechildrenattribute.htm

(Which you may have to reassemble into one line).

ok, if I understand it well, if I put something like [ParseChildren(false)]
before my class, I should be able to put almost anything between my control
tags? I'm asking the question because I don't have access to my control
right now, but I want to know if I understood it well. will it work for a
usercontrol?

Thanks a lot

Hi,

Your original question seemed to concern a custom control, rather than
a user control (just guessing, since you had the cc: prefix). It works
for custom controls. E.g. from VB:

<ParseChildren(False)> _
Public Class Blarg
Inherits System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl

'Implement Custom Control Here
End Class

But I'm not sure how it would work with a user control. I've never
thought or tried to apply attributes to these. I'd have expected it to
be a directive of some kind, but I cannot see anything. Anyone else
know if it's possible to apply attributes to user controls?

anyway I've done it with a custom control instead of a user control, it
seemed easier that way.
