c#.net custo web control not rendering

NutJob

After having to reactor a project and move classes about for a custom control im getting a failure to render any HTML yet i can set breakpoints on the code behind the control and it runs fine.

Even removing the <%Response.writes()%> and trying to get dead html fails.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for possible problems as im stumped and will have to re-write

no errors are displayed on the page i just get a blank section where the control was supposed to render

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks,

Something like this happened me before too. I'm not sure if I'm remembering this correctly, but I think it was something to do with the page directives to include the control. In your page that uses the control you should have something like

<%@ Register Src="UserControl.ascx" TagName="UserControl" TagPrefix="uc1" %>

at the top. and then you would use the control with something like

<uc1:UserControl ID="myUC" runat="server" />

.

If I remember correctly, after I refactored something or other I got the same problem you're having. To fix it I removed the directive and the reference to the control, and then either put them back in by hand, or used visual studios designer to drop the control back in (which should create the appropriate directive). I'll think about it some more and see if I can remember exactly what it was.

Thanks for the post much appreciated

Got it sorted had to re-write it as i was trying to refrence a user control in another project and i guess it doesnt work like that (even with namespaces and assemblys correct).:)
