| Hi Tobias,
I think the sequence of the controls is the sequence of the save events
being executed.
Either top down or bottom up - I did not check.
But as a solution for your problem you could use the content from the
Request.Form field rather than from the placeholder.
Means the content of the other placeholder is in the Request.Form array.
Cheers,
Stefan.
