controls lost in a placeholder when button is clicked

[momo007]

Hi every one, i've created controls dynamically in a placeholder, everything works fine, but when click to a button to save text in the textboxes, everything in the placeholder is gone... because the webform is refreshed. how can i proceed to avoid that??? can any one help me??? Thanks

Add controls in the page preinit event.

thanks for the reply, could you give the syntax of this event plz??

[Paddy Boyd]

Protected Sub Page\_PreInit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.PreInit

End Sub

This should create the controls before the page control hierarchy is built, this way they are retained.
