This is really not a SharePoint question but here you can find an answer:

Calling a method in parent page from user control

I never actually done this but by looking at code there is nothing special and it should work on SharePoint. Of course instead of System.Web.UI.Page you are using Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.LayoutsPageBase

Yes you are right, this is not a sharepoint question, but i am facing this issue in sharepoint. Well, i have used this in .net website, it was working. I declared event, delegate in user control, and registered the usercontrol in application page, but i am not able to get the event in application page codebehind (for ex: usercontrol.event). I am not able to see any property in application page code behind. I dont know whats wrong . – Share Sep 29 '11 at 3:13
only difference is you might have to manually register the delegate method to the click method of the button, in OnLoad. EDIT: Just noticed that the link there includes that. – James Love Oct 28 '11 at 22:25
