1) If you want to react to the button click in the user control, then use the click event of the page to propogate the click to the user control.

2) If you want to set the state of the button based on something that happens in the user control, then your best bet would be to handle a custom event from the user control that can be consumed by the parent page, or if this is a postback event, expose a property or two to get information in the page that is relevant and deal with the button at that level.

At no time should the usercontrol be attempting to modify something on the parent page directly.
