Using the OnInit event in asp.net

Question

I have a content page overriding the OnInit event of the main page. Overriding works fine until I place the user control on the page: in this case, the OnInit event does not fire on the content page (overrides are not used in the user element)

What are the possible reasons / solutions for this? (I use the OnInit event to create dynamic controls)

---

Edit:

now I tried this on the content page:

(The OnPreInit part is executed, but Masters_Init is not called ...)

    protected override void OnPreInit(EventArgs e)
    {
        base.Master.Init += new EventHandler(Masters_Init);
    }

    void Masters_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
    { 
    //code 
    }

Answer 1

Are you calling base.OnInit?

public override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
  // code before base oninit
  base.OnInit(e);
  // code after base oninit
}

Update

public class Page1 : Page
{
  public Page1 : base() {
    PreInit += Page_PreInit;
  }
  void Page_PreInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
    Master.Init += Master_Init;
  }
  void Master_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
    //code
  }
}

protected override void OnPreInit(EventArgs e)
{
  base.OnPreInit(e);
  base.Master.Init += new EventHandler(Masters_Init);
}
