Add Groups and Items on Custom Event?
posted

Hello,

my WebExplorerBar gets its Groups and Items in an Event:

 

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    XXX.NavigationUpdate += new NavigationUpdateEventHandler(Navigation_NavigationUpdate);
}

void Navigation_NavigationUpdate(object sender, NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    UpdateNavigation(e.Key);
}

protected void UpdateNavigation(String key)
        {
            foreach (...yyy...)
            {
                ExplorerBarGroup explorerBarGroup = new ExplorerBarGroup();
                explorerBarGroup.Text = yyy.Key;
                explorerBarGroup.Value = yyy.Value;
                WebExplorerBarDisplayGroup.Groups.Add(explorerBarGroup);
            }

            (...)

        }

The Groups and Items are created in UpdateNavigation() and also added to the WebExplorerBar there.

But they look strange (A look into HTML shows: div and span are missing below the "igeb_XXXHolder level, different class names used than normal; The Groups are <li><a> instead of <li><div><a><span>)

Important: Everything works and looks fine if i add the groups and items not in the event handler but in an earlier point in control lifecycle (say Onload)! But I have to react on the event somehow, so using onload for Item addition is not possible! I suppose there is some initialisation going on before the event handler does its work which needs the existence of the groups and items? Can this initialization be done afterwards too?

I hope you understand my problem, otherwise ask please. Thanks in Adcance!

    So I think I have it now: Creating the control completely dynamically on the event does the trick.
