Controlling a panel on a parent form from a user control

[alan6895]

Hello again, everyone.
I've made a user control to overcome the single-form limitation in ASP .NET 2.0. The UC does a little work and then needs to interact with the parent form. I've seen how to find controls in the parents, but I need the UC to open and close some panels in the parent. Anyone have any suggestions or a better way to do this? It's for a multiple file upload form (which, on a sidenote, if anyone has tips on how to do multiple file uploads efficiently, let me know). Thanks!

the idea of the UC is that it's webform egnostic. the parent is resposible maintaining the UC, but the UC is unaware of it's parent.

Ok, so the multiple form problem persists even with the user control. I changed the way the form components are integrated and that solved problem. Now, thouhg the files don't upload. Sooo, anyone have suggestions on multiple file upload controls? I have one I'm working with now from

I ported it to VB .NET. Thanks!
