Skinning dynamically created controls
posted

have a couple of specialised ultra web grids and a skin file. control is created dynamically. rather than having separate entries in the skin file for each specialised grid just want a generic one. Can get the skin settings to work only if i specify the specialised name. Any ideas?

In my skin file I want to use:
<cc1:BaseGrid Runat="server"> ...

instead of:
<cc1:SpecialisedGrid Runat="server"> ...

    As far as I know, this is an ASP.NET behavior issue, and you might be out of luck, but hopefully I'm wrong about the latter.

    The way I usually did this was set the properties in the base control code (in the appropriate lifecycle event), not the skin file.
