On click event not working

[Guest]

Can anyone help with this problem.
I’ve started using Visual Studio 2005. In 2003 if I wanted to create a
button dynamically in ASP.NET with a click event I just did this

Button MyButton = new Button();
MyButton.Click += new EventHandler(MyButton_Click);

And the resulting on click methos worked fine.

Now in Visual studio 2005 if I use the same technique Vis Studio creates a
method with the folowing

void MyButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
throw new Exception("The method or operation is not
implemented.");
}


And the event will not fire. Does anyone know why this has changed and what
can I do to make it fire?

Its not firing or it raises an exception?

Peter_A,
the event should indeed fire. What you need to do is remove the stub "not
implemented exception code" and put real business logic code there.

Are you storing MyButton somewhere so it doesnt go out of scope and get
GC'd?
i.e. in the form's controls collection.

Chaps, my appologise. I have found the reason why the event was not firing.
It's because I was putting the code in the OnPreRender of an ASCX control
that I have been building.

When I moved the code into the OnInit section the event fired correctly.

Thank you for your efforts.
