I am trying to programatically add a menu item with a template to a ASPxMenu control. I have a class defined as:
public class MyTemplate :TemplateControl, ITemplate {
public MyTemplate() {}
public void InstantiateIn(control container) {
LiteralControl lit = new LiteralControl("<div>Blah Blah</div>");
container.Controls.Add(lit);
}
}
I assign a new one of these to my MenuItem.TextTemplate but InstantiateIn never gets called and nothing shows up in the menu.
Am I missing something?
Thanks

I have now fixed this by:
- calling DataBind() on the menu control
- reconstructing the menu item on postbacks
Many thanks
