    Usercontrols - what am I doing wrong?

    I have the following simple usercontrol:

    <%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="HelloWorld.ascx.cs" Inherits="HelloWorld" %>
    <h1>HelloWorld</h1>
    <p><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></p>
    <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
    <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" onclick="Button1_Click" Text="Button" />

    Have created a macro using the usercontrol and have inserted that macro on a page (using the editor).
    Have have published the site in VS2010pro and copied the dll file to the bin folder on my umbraco site and the ascx file to det usercontrol folder.
    The text on from the usercontrol is shown on the page but not the controls :(
    What's wrong?

    Hey Thor,

    Is the user control wrapped in a <form runat="server"> tag?

    Hi,

    You need to wrap the usercontol in a <form runat="server"> if you want to use runat="server" controls

    Sorry, crosspost.

    Yes, put it in your template, you can put it just after your body tag in your master template as there can only be one per page.
