Notes to ImplementersIf you do not define the SupportsEventValidationAttribute attribute, your custom control does not automatically participate in event validation. However, your control can explicitly call ValidateEvent. If you handle event registration and validation, call ValidateEvent, and then you do not need to define this attribute on the control.
