Hi Scott

It also does not work if you took the DropDownList out of
the User control and placed it directly into the Template
File.

There is a postback. But the event handler is not getting
called.

And here's when it gets really weird: I removed
AutoPostBack=true from the DropDownList and the event
handler was called...strange.
