I'm not sure if there is a much better way.
The code sample that exists under download also use ControlsCreated: http://world.episerver.com/Download/Categories/Download-Type/Code-Samples/XForms/How-to-replace-the-submit-button-with-custom-content-for-an-xform/
Is there a supported way to do "control injection" on an X-Form? I would like EPiServer to use my controls (which are derived from their controls).
I'm doing it now, but it's ugly. I catch "ControlsCreated," and do this:
So, essentially, I empty the Controls collection and rebuild it, swapping some of EPiServer's controls for my own.
(And, yes, I considered a Control Adapter, but some of EPiServer's methods in their X-Form controls are protected (RenderLabel, for instance), so they can't be called from the outside. By deriving the object, I get around this.)
Any ideas?
