I am having a heck of a time with this, please someone know something about this!!
I have a web application with 2 files (not including the defaults like web.config). default.aspx and postbacktest.ascx.
I am loading the PostBackTest.ascx into a panel on Default.aspx dynamically via LoadControl. The following are the contents of all files and the error I get when I click the button on PostBackTest.ascx
Default.aspx
Default.cs
PostBackTest.ascx
PostBackTest.cs
Exception Output: Happens when Button is clicked
Could someone please shed some light on this!? It was happening in a much larger application, so for simplicity and the sake of my brain, I moved it into a test harness with as little code as possible... low and behold, it happened in this test harness as well.
Best regards,
Akusei
