I get a string like "<select><option value=1>One</option></select>" and
want to get a HtmlSelect control. In .NET 1.1 I used this code:

TemplateControl p = new System.Web.UI.UserControl();
Control htmlControl = p.ParseControl("<select
runat=\"server\"><option>hans</option></select>");

HtmlControl result = null;

if (htmlControl.GetType() == htmlControlType)
{
 result = htmlControl as HtmlControl;
}
else
{
 foreach (Control con in htmlControl.Controls)
 {
   if (con.GetType() == htmlControlType)
   {
     result = con as HtmlControl;
     break;
   }
 }
}

In .NET 2.0 I get an exception that the property virtualPath is missing.
If I use the ParseControl method in a webform (UI.Page) it is working
correct, but I need this code in a library.

Regards,
Michael

The problem is that I need this feature in a library, not on a page. I
get the error ArgumentException for argument virtualPath.
