Remarks

The OnPreRender method notifies the HtmlTextArea control to perform any necessary steps prior to saving the view state and rendering content.

The OnPreRender method is used primarily by control developers extending the functionality of the HtmlTextArea control.

Notes to Inheritors

When overriding the OnPreRender(EventArgs) method in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnPreRender(EventArgs) method so that the HtmlTextArea control is properly registered with the page.
