I have a third-party CustomControl which requires some info for databinding or anything else what it happen in a postback event handler. Trying to send this info via, say, dropDownList i face that this dropdownlist postback event handler isn't firing before CustomControlEventHandler, as it happens in ASP.Net. What is usual workaround?

Or I should never rely on server side transfer and try to transfer this info on client-side etc.?

  • This is the same basic problem as http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1081642/how-do-you-manage-the-order-of-firing-events-in-asp-net, right? – Jonathan Rupp Jul 04 '09 at 09:31
  • @Jonathan I agree, both questions are pretty similar. – Paulo Santos Jul 04 '09 at 09:47
  • yes, but i considered useful to formulate it more appropriate way, because i still don't know the right decision, and stackoverflow doesn't have an exact answer. i do not appeal to solve my programming problem - it is already solved someway, but i found a lack of technology understanding and maybe someone will give a right explanation. – rudnev Jul 04 '09 at 09:48
  • What keeps you from manually call some method that manipulates the grid from your dropdownlist's event handler? – user134706 Jul 12 '09 at 08:41

try

<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true"></asp:DropDownList>

note: AutoPostBack="true"
