Session from a user control?

[hpl]

I have an app with some user controls. When I send this information (session("test") = txtTest.text) to a new page using Server.transfer everything works fine. My problem is that when I click Back the txtText.text is reloaded and the entered value is gone. What goes wrong? Is it something I can prevent by settings in the web.config?
I am using VS2002, could that be the reason?

If you're just clicking Back, the page state was lost so you'll need something like the following in the page load(and remember to check for "if not page.ispostback"):

txtTest.Text = Session( "test" )

Hi PVB, I have tried that as well, but it doesn't help

post some code(the piece that assigns the session var and the server.transfer), maybe it's somethin with how you're assigning the session var. And you're inside visual studio when you do this? if you are does the same thing happen when you use a stand alone browser?

Yes, I have tried to run the form directly, but the same thing happens. I have attatched my code.

hmm, well i actually couldn't get your project to not work, but try this in the code behind for page1a.aspx:

Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init
        'CODEGEN: This method call is required by the Web Form Designer
        'Do not modify it using the code editor.
        InitializeComponent()
        If Not Page.IsPostBack And Not Session("teksten_i_textbox1") Is Nothing Then
            Me.TextBox1.Text = Session("teksten_i_textbox1")
        End If
    End Sub

I have an idea of that the reason why it doesn't work is that I am using VS2002 Pro. One of my collegues is using VS2003 and then the code works fine

[hpl]

Doesn't work either.
Are you using VS2003 Pro?

[pvb]

yes i am but i ran that outside of the editor.

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["var"]/("var") is always a good idea. If you have trouble, or your in a weird place and you don't know where to find the Session. It is exactly what it implies the Current.Session/Request/Response/Server....

Also, EnsureChildControls() will make sure that the page and all it controls exist and can be accessed. Well it should.

n/m I'm a dork. That won't help.
