asp.net: what's the page life cycle order of a control/page compared to a user contorl inside it?

Question

I have an aspx and inside it an ascx. From a short testing I see the PageLoad of the aspx is called before the PageLoad of the user-Control but the opposite is true for OnInit.

Does someone know what is the order of the events (page compared to a user-control inside it)

Thanks

You should look at this ASP.NET Page Life Cycle Overview and this

Page: PreInit
Control: Init
Page: Init
Page: InitComplete
Page: PreLoad
Page: Load
Control: Load
Page: LoadComplete
Page: PreRender
Control: PreRender
Page: PreRenderComplete
Page: SaveStateComplete
Page: RenderControl
Page: Render
Control: RenderControl
Control: Unload
Control: Dispose
Page: Unload
Page: Dispose
