Use action (Event) in custom control
<![CDATA[
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="ACME" Namespace="MyCustomControls" Assembly="CustomControls"%>
<script runat="server">
sub Submit(Sender as Object, e as EventArgs)
'do nothing
end sub
sub ChangeIt(Sender as Object, e as EventArgs)
Response.write("Event handled!")
end sub
</script>
<html><body>
<form runat=server>
The custom control produces the following output:
<ACME:CustomControl id="MyControl" runat="server"
Message="Hello world!"
OnTextChanged="ChangeIt" />
<asp:Button runat="server"
Text="Submit"
OnClick="Submit" />
</form>
</body></html>
