You might take a look at my web control below. It allows you to easily swap
in and out user controls. Works really well and you still have full control
over you code behind.

I use this method (as do others) as a master type template style.

Hi jorge,

Any source code illustrating what you're doing would really help in
understanding what may be wrong.

It seems like you're after page templating in which case I highly recommend
you to take a look at Master Pages and its derivatives[1]

Hi all,

I have to replace a bunch of controls dynamically (TextBoxes, DropDowns,
etc).

Any way to do this? The 'template' pages are made on asp.net with tables
(not runat=server) and asp:textboxes, etc.

So I need to do a loop on the controls of the webform, but alas! they are
read only. I could do it directly on the template webform, that would be OK,
but not as good, but I cannot:

myTextBoxInMyWebFormWithFormatting = myDynamicallyCreatedTextBoxWithValues;

Ideas?

I suppose its dynamically not dymamically.

Oh, and it is not only the value, there are a bunch of events attached to
the textbox and autopostback mapped to an object model, and dynamic
validation. That is why it is quite important that i get it right
