Panel item controls not persisting

[caesar]

Hey guys,

Forgive me if this was answered elsewhere; I couldn't find it.

I am trying to add a standard RadioButtonList as a child control to a panel item.  "pbarForm" was added at design-time to the aspx page

Page_Load(){

if(!IsPostBack){

RadPanelItem pi = new RadPanelItem();;

pi.EnableViewState=true;

pi.Text = "Panel";

pbarForm.Items.Add(pi);

RadioButtonList rbl = new RadioButtonList();

rbl.AutoPostBack = true;

rbl.EnableViewState = true;

rbl.Items.Add("1");

rbl.Items.Add("2");           rbl.SelectedIndexChanged+= new EventHandler(rbl_SelectedIndexChanged);

pi.Controls.Add(rbl);

}

}

The page loads fine and the radio buttons show up fine, but when I click the radio buttons, it postsback and then the page is rendered without the radiobutton list.

Not sure why this is happening.

Below is my aspx page:

<form id="form1" runat="server">
<telerik:RadScriptManager id="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
</telerik:RadScriptManager>
<telerik: RadAjaxPanel id="RadAjaxPanel1" runat="server">
<div>
<telerik:RadPanelBar ID="pbarForm" runat="server">
</telerik:RadPanelBar>
</div>
</telerik:RadAjaxPanel>
</form>

Thank you in advance,
Caesar

Nevermind - I figured out that I have to use the ItemTemplate

Thanks.
