Hello,
I am using a Paging control made as a composite control with 2 aspnet buttons+textbox+2 aspnet buttons + labels, they all have a fixed width.Their size and position are totally broken by decorator: width get bigger and they spersedd each other.
My very light code :
    
                    //Construct controls  
        
                    protected override void  CreateChildControls()  
        
                    {  
        
                        Controls.Clear();  
        
                btnFirst                    =   new Button();  
        
                        btnFirst.ID                 =   "Pager_BtnFirst";  
        
                        btnFirst.Width              =   new Unit("25px");  
        
                        btnFirst.Font.Bold          =   true;  
        
                        btnFirst.Text               =   " |< ";  
        
                        btnFirst.CommandArgument    =   "first";  
        
                        btnFirst.EnableViewState    =   false;  
        
                        Controls.Add(btnFirst);  
        
                        btnPrev                     =   new Button();  
        
                        btnPrev.ID                  =   "Pager_BtnPrev";  
        
                        btnPrev.Width               =   new Unit("25px");  
        
                        btnPrev.Font.Bold           =   true;  
        
                        btnPrev.Text                =   " < ";  
        
                        btnPrev.CommandArgument     =   "prev";  
        
                        btnPrev.EnableViewState     =   false;  
        
                        Controls.Add(btnPrev);  
        
                        Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("&#160;"));  
        
                        if (useRad)  
        
                        {  
        
                            RadNumericTextBox tbPage    = new RadNumericTextBox();  
        
                            tbPage.ShowSpinButtons      = true;  
        
                            tbPage.MinValue             = 0;  
        
                            tbPage.Type                 = NumericType.Number;

                        }  
        
                        else  
        
                        {  
        
                            TextBox tbPage              = new TextBox();

                        btnNext.ID                      =   "Pager_BtnNext";  
        
                        btnNext.Width                   =   new Unit("25px");  
        
                        btnNext.Font.Bold               =   true;  
        
                        btnNext.Text                    =   " > ";  
        
                        btnNext.CommandArgument         =   "next";  
        
                        btnNext.EnableViewState         =   false;  
        
                        Controls.Add(btnNext);  
        
                        btnLast                         =   new Button();  
        
                        btnLast.ID                      =   "Pager_BtnLast";  
        
                        btnLast.Width                   =   new Unit("25px");  
        
                        btnLast.Font.Bold               =   true;  
        
                        btnLast.Text                    =   " >| ";  
        
                        btnLast.CommandArgument         =   "last";

                        lblof                           =   new Label();  
        
                        lblof.ID                        =   "Pager_lblof";

                        Controls.Add(lblof);

                        if (ViewState["PageNumber"] == null)  
        
                            PageNumber = 1;  
        
                    }
Thanks for help.
