Adding Dynamic User Controls tab panel PlaceHolder
I have a website that has numerous tab panels, each of which contains a PlaceHolder. My end result would ideally be that as only one tab panel is available for viewing at any one time, that only 1 user control is loaded into the relevent PlaceHolder (ie on the current ActiveTab). I do not want to load a usercontrol into each PlaceHolder as this will take processing time and is not necessary seeing as only 1 user control is viewable at any one time. The usercontrol has a formview and a gridview on it. I know i can add the user control to the placeholder with an explicit ID using LoadControl in the Page_Init event, but as said, the problem is that i only want 1 user control to load... and be responsive to the formview saves.

TheLearnedOne - how do i get one user control to load and be responsive to formview saves?
amar31282 - I am using System.Web.UI.WebControls.
More information - there is a requirement to have each page of the associated formview usercontrol on a different tab.
rkworlds - this looks good but will take a look at this once i get to work.

Is the FormView outside of the TabContainer, or on one of the tab panels?

The formview (inside a user control) is inside EACH of the tab panels. I just want one usercontrol on the served page at any one time.
If the FormView is inside the user control, then what does "and be responsive to the formview saves" mean? It should be pretty simple to have the FormView update, since it isn't outside the user control. There might be something missing in the question, that would make this more complicated.

When i click save on the formview, it disappears. It wouldn't be a problem if there was one usercontrol for each tabpanel (ie explicitly defined) however i just want one usercontrol dynamically added to the activetabpanel when it is clicked.

I put not complete as it did not explain exactly why, however it appears that the page life cycle was the issue.
