DataFactory.Instance has the events you are looking for.

First, register for this event in Application_Start to add initialization code in your app:

EPiServer.Web.InitializationModule.FirstBeginRequest

In that event, then attach to this event and do your magic from there:

EPiServer.DataFactory.Instance.SavingPage

The eventhandler of the saving is called in the global asax and i want the event handler in my page where the developer will write the code.

i can check the page type in global asax but i want just the single page type to get the save event

I am not sure I understand what you mean with having the "in my page". Are you refering to the webform template or ?

Webform ( the aspx ) is the same in the template, no ?

the Scenarioio is -> i want to get values from serverl properties and save them in an external DB

when the content editor saves the page

Ah ok, I mean the event handler can be a static method in any class so you can put it anywhere you feel is best in your solution. You just need the bootstrap in Application_Start since it is global and should only be initialized once.
