WebPartZoneBase.WebParts Property
Gets the collection of Web Parts controls contained within a zone.
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
Property Value
Type: System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartCollectionA WebPartCollection that contains references to all the Web Parts controls in a zone.
The WebParts property can contain references to controls that inherit directly from the WebPart class, as well as other ASP.NET server controls or custom controls within a zone. The Web Parts control set dynamically wraps any control that is not a WebPart control as a GenericWebPart control at run time; this mechanism enables you to use all types of ASP.NET controls as Web Parts controls.
The following code example demonstrates the programmatic use of the WebParts property on a WebPartZone control. For the full code example, including the code-behind source file and the .aspx page that contains the zone in this code, see the WebPartZoneBase class overview.
The following code example accesses the WebParts property programmatically and displays a list of the controls contained in WebPartZone1. After you load the page into a browser, click the button labeled List WebPartZone1 WebParts. The IDs and types of the controls are displayed.
protected void Button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); builder.AppendLine(@"<strong>WebPartZone1 WebPart IDs</strong><br />"); foreach (WebPart part in WebPartZone1.WebParts) { builder.AppendLine("ID: " + part.ID + "; Type: " + part.GetType() + @"<br />"); } Label2.Text = builder.ToString(); Label2.Visible = true; }
