i have an asp.net page.with four text box controls.I also have a link button .
i want to add 4 text boxes each time i click on the link button.I write code for this but it didnt works well.Only the first time it creates 4 text boxes but when i click the link button again the text box controls are not displayed.

here is my code

static count=0;
protected void LinkButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
            int q;
        
               q = count + 1;
                TextBox t1 = new TextBox();
                t1.ID = "a" + q.ToString();
                TextBox t2 = new TextBox();
                t2.ID = "b" + q;
                TextBox t3 = new TextBox();
                t3.ID = "c" + q;
                TextBox t4 = new TextBox();
                t4.ID = "d" + q;
                Panel1.Controls.Add(t1);
                Panel2.Controls.Add(t2);
                Panel3.Controls.Add(t3);
                Panel4.Controls.Add(t4);
               Panel1.Visible = true;
               Panel2.Visible = true;
               Panel3.Visible = true;
               Panel4.Visible = true;
              count = count + 1;
              Response.Write(Panel1.Controls.Count);
                      
        }

I'm not sure if that static value persists between postbacks. Try putting your count value in a hidden field.

Maybe, maybe not....

I had a similar problem with creating controls on a form. I swore they weren't being created. Then I realized they really were being created, but without specifying their location they were all being created on top of each other, thus looking like one.

If you are only going by what it *looks* like is happening remember: Looks can be deceiving. Perhaps while debugging have the creation loop exit into a message box telling you how many total controls were made.

Then again, might be something entirely different.
