I have code to dynamically generate some link buttons (It's not know how
many are needed until runtime.)

I am adding the linkbutton to a cell in a table and the adding works fine.
It's firing of the event doesn't seem to be happening. Am I missing
something?

Here's the code:

To create the link button:

ldrCell = new TableCell();
LinkButton lbLink = new LinkButton();
lbLink.Text = "Button - " + ldrCatRow["ProductDesc"].ToString();
lbLink.CommandName = "Desc";
lbLink.CommandArgument = "FieldValue";
lbLink.Command += new CommandEventHandler(LinkButton1_Command);
lbLink.Click += new EventHandler(LinkButton1_Click);

ldrCell.Controls.Add(lbLink);


And the code that handles the events:
protected void LinkButton1_Command(object sender, CommandEventArgs e)
{
string lstemp = e.CommandArgument.ToString();
string lsmsg = lstemp + " ----";
}
protected void LinkButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string lstemp = "It was clicked.";
string lsmsg = lstemp + " --------";
}


TIA - Jeff.
 
Thanks for the help.

I was creating the objects in pre-render.

At which moment do you create your LinkButton
Check http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178472.aspx "ASP.NET Page
Life Cycle "

You should be done with it before Load event...
