Classes that Implement IPostBackEventHandler

Remarks

To create a server control that captures form submit information from the browser, you must implement this interface. For more information on how to use this interface, see Capturing Postback Events.

Example

[Visual Basic, C#, C++] The following example defines a custom button server control that causes post back, captures the post back event using the RaisePostBackEvent method, and raises a Click event on the server.
