I have a custom control deriving from HtmlImage control which I cant get to show up on toolbox, it says "There are no components in '...\bin\Debug\ImageCustomControl.dll' that can be placed on the toolbox.". Here is the code for the control: namespace ImageCustomControl { public class ImageHtmlControl : HtmlImage { public override void RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) { this.Src = "https://somedomain.com" + this.Src; base.RenderControl(writer); } } } Here is a post back from 2003 that says its not possible, but just wanted to know if it has changed since: http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/sampchap/5728d.aspx Thanks in advance.
