Adding a refence to Header from a control

In the Page load of A control the Page.Header is null when I am attempting to add a reference. Is there anything special I have to do to add a reference to the head of a page from a control.

Maybe a better way to as this is when does Page.Header load or when can it be accessed from a control

Be sure to set your head tag runat="server"

<head runat="server">
..
</head>

otherwise, the reference to Page.Header will always be null.

You can just add an event handler to Page Loaded Event inside Load Event of control and do what you want.

Something like that:

    this.Page.LoadComplete += (ObjectSender, ev) =>
    {
        var mStyle = new Style();
        mStyle.BorderWidth = new Unit(5);
        Page.Header.StyleSheet.CreateStyleRule(mStyle, null, "body");
    };

ps. I used expression lambda for simplicity.
