Bubbling Events

Published 10 May 05 05:40 PM | Scott Mitchell

This morning a colleague of mine asked for information on bubbling events up the ASP.NET control hierarchy, a task is commonplace when developing DataBound ASP.NET templated server controls. I started out with my boilerplate recommendation for all server control developers: buy a copy of Developing Microsoft ASP.NET Server Controls and Components. I then pointed out a short discussion of bubbling events in an earlier article of mine, specifically in the “Detecting and Bubbling Up Events” in my article Building DataBound Templated Custom ASP.NET Server Controls, which not only discusses bubbling events but also looks at doing it in my free RssFeed server control.

Seeing as I needed to whip out an article for this week's WebWeekly newsletter on 4Guys I decided to turn this query into a full-blown article. For more information check out my latest article on 4Guys, Bubbling Events Up the Control Hierarchy. Enjoy!
