The RenderContents method writes the MenuItem objects of the associated Menu control to the output stream as hyperlinks. The RenderContents method is called from the Render method and is used to perform modifications to the markup code that is rendered to a device browser.

Control properties should be set prior to this phase of the life cycle, and only the actual markup creation for the control done here. Changes made to the control in this stage of the life cycle are not saved to view state. For saving changes made to the control, override the OnPreRender event.
