How to suppress/clear Response from within a control?

Hello,

I am developing a custom control.
From within this control, maybe during/before rendering, I want to totally
clear the response content and only render this control's output.
Since the Render event of the page is protected I can not attach an event
handler at runtime.
When I use Response.Clear() and/or Response.ClearContent() and/or delete
controls from the Controls collection of the Page I still get the closing
tags of form, body, and html tags in the resulting html.

I wonder if that's possible..

P.S. A similar message was also posted on aspnet.buildingcontrols and
aspnet.webcontrols lists.

Thanks in advance,

AhmetG

protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
Response.ClearContent();
// output my content

Response.End();
}
