PageLoad (and other methods) becoming unhooked ..... 1

[StevenK]

I'm seeing something annoying when working with ASP.NET web pages (as created in Visual Studio).
Every now and again - some of the methods are becoming unhooked from the visual components on the web forms.
The 'PageLoad' event is a prime example of this.
What I mean, is that I can be developing against a form, and suddenly when I'm testing it I find that a lot of the code I've set to run just plain simply isn't being called ....
I then have to re-hook the events under the hood.
Can anyone suggest what's causing this ?
And how I can prevent it ?
Thanks in advance
Steve

Are you dynamically loading user controls?

Check your postback state on page_load if so

Do you mean setting up methods against components as and when I load the form ?
No - I'm not.
Sometimes I just lose the 'PageLoad' event - but just recently (this morning - prompting me to throw in this forum post) I lost all events against the components on the web form. [grrrr!!!].
Any further thoughts ?

VS eats code sometimes. I think it has something to do with changing ID's of controls, but I'm not 100% on that.

I have been dealing with it for the past 3.5 years, so let's hope they fix it w/ VS2005.

There's no patch or service pack for VS that would rectify this ?
My worry is that I lose some methods and this goes un-noticed until the end-user finds it [as careful as we might be when developing].
Is there anything else I can be doing to help limit this from occuring ?
Thanks again.

Not that I've found, no. End users have found mine quite a few times. I agree it's not a good thing, but I have yet to find anything to stop it.

There are plenty of people complaining, though, so like I said, hopefully VS2005 will have a fix in it.

OK - Thanks for the heads-up.
