Hello

This is my 1st project where I have to create a Webcontrol. I have created a simple custom control with a button and 2 labels added to a panel. My problem is that the event handler that I have assigned to the button [private void btnSubmit_Click()], is not getting invoked. Could anyone please go thru the code and let me know what I am missing here? Thanks in advance

My custom control is as follows

using System
using System.Web
using System.Web.UI
using System.Web.UI.WebControls
using System.ComponentModel
using System.Drawing

namespace WebControlLibrary

/// <summary
/// This WebControl simulates the rolling of a die. It consists of a label and a submit butto
/// encapsulated in a Panel. When the button is clicked, the event handler calls a metho
/// of the control - RollDice() to set the label with a random number between 1 and 6
/// When the Page is initialized, RollDice() is called in order to initialize the label wit
/// a value
/// </summary

public class WebCustomControl1 : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebContro

int dice_num
Label lblNum = new Label()
Button btnSubmit = new Button()
Label lblComments = new Label()
Panel MainPanel = new Panel()

[Bindable(true)
Category("Appearance")
DefaultValue("")
public int DiceNu

ge

return dice_num

se

dice_num = value
if(dice_num > 0 && dice_num < 7
lblNum.Text = dice_num.ToString()


private void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, CommandEventArgs e

RollDice()
lblComments.Text += "In btnSubmit_Click()"

protected void RollDice(

Random rng = new Random(System.DateTime.Now.Millisecond)
dice_num = rng.Next(1,7)
lblNum.Text = dice_num.ToString()


protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e

base.OnInit (e)
btnSubmit.Text = "Submit"
lblNum.BackColor = Color.LightBlue
lblNum.Width = 30
lblComments.Text = "In OnInit()"


protected override void CreateChildControls(

MainPanel.Controls.Add(lblNum)
MainPanel.Controls.Add(btnSubmit)
MainPanel.Controls.Add(lblComments)
Controls.Add(MainPanel)


protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter output

AddAttributesToRender(output)
MainPanel.RenderControl(output)




The aspx page that I am using to test this control is just a simple one
