Hey there,

I have a web service that returns a load of XML data which I wish to layout
on a web page. I am not 100% certain of the best practice for doing this.
One way I presumed that I could do this was by handling the Page_Load event
of the web form, but unfortunately I do not seem to be able to do this as I
just recieve a compile error,

"Warning 156 sub 'Page_Load' shadows an overloadable member declared in the
base class 'History'. If you want to overload the base method, this method
must be declared 'Overloads'. ...\history.aspx 21 19 ..."

If I overload the function it simply does not get called. I would like the
data to be fetched each time the page is initiated, so I also tried
overriding the LoadViewState method but this does not seem to get called
either.

I think I may layout my XML data using XSLT but am not compeltely decided
yet. Any advice would be most appreciative.

TIA.

Nick.

Just an update that I have the data being obtained from the service now
within the OnInit event of the page so now I just have to output it,
although i am not 100% certain on how I would do this. I have done it
JAVAScript fine, but not with asp.net.

I'm guessing the best way that I can do this is to create a user control and
pass the xml to the user control which would then perform an XML
transformation upon the data. How would one achieve this?

TIA.

Nick.

I think I have it now, I am using the XML control and setting the
TransformSource property to the xsl file, and putting the xml data into
DocumentContent. It is transforming successfully onto my page now, so
that's fantastic
