Handling Button Click Event inside a WebControl

I've created a custom WebControl that implements a simple message box that can display at the top of a web page. Similar to how YouTube displays messages on their pages. My problem is passing the Click event from any button I add to the box down to the ASPX page.

Below is the code for the WebControl. I think I have handling the click events right, but when I add this code to my page, the click event never gets called, although Page_Load does.

Here's the code in the APSX page:

<rt:ConfirmationBox ID="ConfirmationBox1" runat="server" BoxType="Info" BoxButtons="OkayCancel" OnOkayClicked="ConfirmationBoxOkayClicked"
    Text="Click OK to close." />

Here's the code in the code behind page:

protected void ConfirmationBoxOkayClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ConfirmationBox1.BoxButtons = ConfirmationBoxButtons.None;
    ConfirmationBox1.BoxType = ConfirmationBoxType.Success;
    ConfirmationBox1.Text = "You clicked OK!";
}

Here's the WebControl code:

public enum ConfirmationBoxType
{
    Hidden,
    Success,
    Warn,
    Error,
    Info
}

public enum ConfirmationBoxButtons
{
    None,
    Okay,
    Cancel,
    OkayCancel
}

[DefaultProperty("Text")]
[ToolboxData("<{0}:ConfirmationBox ID=\"ConfirmationBox1\" runat=server></{0}:ConfirmationBox>")]
public class ConfirmationBox : WebControl
{
    private static readonly ILog Log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(ConfirmationBox));

    private Button _okayButton;
    private Button _cancelButton;

    public event EventHandler OkayClicked;
    public event EventHandler CancelClicked;

    public virtual void OnOkayClicked(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)
    {
        if (OkayClicked != null)
            OkayClicked(sender, eventArgs);
    }

    public virtual void OnCancelClicked(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)
    {
        if (CancelClicked != null)
            CancelClicked(sender, eventArgs);
    }

    protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e)
    {
        _okayButton = new Button {ID = "ConfirmBoxOkayButton", CssClass = "button", Text = "OK"};
        _okayButton.Click += new EventHandler(OnOkayClicked);

        _cancelButton = new Button {ID = "ConfirmBoxCancelButton", CssClass = "button", Text = "Cancel"};
        _cancelButton.Click += new EventHandler(OnCancelClicked);
    }

    [Bindable(true)]
    [Category("Appearance")]
    [DefaultValue("")]
    [Localizable(true)]
    public string Text
    {
        get
        {
            var s = (String)ViewState["Text"];
            return (s ?? String.Empty);
        }

        set
        {
            ViewState["Text"] = value;
        }
    }

    [Bindable(true)]

    public ConfirmationBoxType BoxType

        }

        set
        {

        }
    }

        }
    }

    protected override HtmlTextWriterTag TagKey

    protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter writer)

            writer.RenderEndTag();

            writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Type, "button");
            writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Class, "clo开发者_如何学编程se");
            writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Onclick, "$(\"#alerts\").hide()");
            writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.Button);
            writer.Write("close");
            writer.RenderEndTag();

            if (BoxButtons != ConfirmationBoxButtons.None)
            {
                writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Class, "rt-alert-buttons");
                writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.Div);
                if (BoxButtons == ConfirmationBoxButtons.Okay || BoxButtons == ConfirmationBoxButtons.OkayCancel)
                    _okayButton.RenderControl(writer);
                if (BoxButtons == ConfirmationBoxButtons.Cancel || BoxButtons == ConfirmationBoxButtons.OkayCancel)
                    _cancelButton.RenderControl(writer);
                writer.RenderEndTag();
            }

            writer.RenderEndTag();
        }
    }

    private string RenderBoxType()
    {
        switch (BoxType)
        {
            case ConfirmationBoxType.Success:
                return "rt-alert-success";
            case ConfirmationBoxType.Warn:
                return "rt-alert-warn";
            case ConfirmationBoxType.Error:
                return "rt-alert-error";
            case ConfirmationBoxType.Info:
                return "rt-alert-info";
        }

        return string.Empty;
    }
}

Create a separate method for your custom event handler, like this:

protected virtual void OnOkayClicked(EventArgs e)
{
    if (OkayClicked!= null)
        OkayClicked(this, e);
}

Change the name of the button click event and make it protected, like this:

protected void OkayButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     //call your event handler method
     this.OnOkayClicked(EventArgs.Empty);
}

Test this out, and see if it makes a difference.
