Problem reading a textbox in a web control

[asifmaniar]

Hi, I am writing a custom webcontrol. I added an asp text box to the control and the javascript populates in with the date. The problem is that on postback when i try to read the text property of the text box via a property in the control it always returns a blank. Any idea why am loosing the viewstate value. The viewstate of the text box is set to true. I assume i dont have to implement the IPostBackDataHandler coz the textbox am using is an asp control. Thanks Asif

Hi there, How do you add the standard textbox to the custom control? When do you access the control's property on postback to get the value of the textbox? Are you sure that the textbox is added to the control on postback before you access its value? Perhaps, code snippets could help.
