Problem dynamically rendering DropDownList in custom control...

[tcstom]

Part of my Render method in a custom control contains the following code...

DropDownListOfStaff.Items.Add(new ListItem("test", "test"));
DropDownListOfStaff.RenderControl(writer);

...where DropDownListOfStaff is a DropDownList instantiated programmatically. The rendered HTML has this SELECT element but it contains no items? Why is this? I'm new to custom controls so I assume there's something I'm missing...

Sorry, my mistake, the problem was with how I was managing the ViewState. It's OK...!

Sorry, it was too long ago now. I really don't remember what I was working on...
