What is a bubbled event in ASP.NET server side controls?
Bubbling an Event
The ASP.NET page framework provides a technique called event bubbling that allows a child control to propagate events up its containment hierarchy. Event bubbling enables events to be raised from a more convenient location in the controls hierarchy and allows event handlers to be attached to the original control as well as to the control that exposes the bubbled event.
Event bubbling is used by the data-bound controls (Repeater, DataList, and DataGrid) to expose command events raised by child controls (within item templates) as top-level events. While ASP.NET server controls in the .NET Framework use event bubbling for command events (events whose event data class derives from CommandEventArgs), any event defined on a server control can be bubbled.
