asp.net building controls: Hi all,

I've made a user control and I need to pass it some information so it knows
what it should display. Can anyone tell me what i need to do to pass it
information via html attributes. eg:

<asp:mycontrol myproperty="true" runat="server"></asp:mycontrol>

I know I can pass it information in my codebehind, but i need to do that
before the controls page load is called.

Many thanks to anyone who can help

Hi,

Expose a property from your user control (that will receive the info) and
set the value for that property from the HTML markup (using attirubtes) like
how you have given below.
