ASP.NET page life cycle explanation

There are 10 events in ASP.NET page life cycle, and the sequence is:

  1. Init
  2. Load view state
  3. Post back data
  4. Load
  5. Validate
  6. Events
  7. Pre-render
  8. Save view state
  9. Render
  10. Unload

Below is a pictorial view of ASP.NET Page life cycle with what kind of code is expected in that event. I suggest you read this article I wrote on the ASP.NET Page life cycle, which explains each of the 10 events in detail and when to use them.
