Examples
The following example shows how the TemplateContainer property can be used to obtain a reference to a control in a rendering template (defined in an .ascx file). See Walkthrough: Creating a Custom Field Type for the full example.
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
if (this.Field != null && this.ControlMode != SPControlMode.Display)
{
// Make sure inherited child controls are completely rendered.
base.CreateChildControls();
// Associate child controls in the .ascx file with the
// fields allocated by this control.
this.ISBNPrefix = (Label)TemplateContainer.FindControl("ISBNPrefix");
this.textBox = (TextBox)TemplateContainer.FindControl("TextField");
if (!this.Page.IsPostBack)
{
if (this.ControlMode == SPControlMode.New)
{
textBox.Text = "0-000-00000-0";
} // end assign default value in New mode
}// end if this is not a postback
//Do not reinitialize on a postback.
}// end if there is a non-null underlying ISBNField and control mode is not Display
// Do nothing if the ISBNField is null or control mode is Display.
}
