How to dynamically create SliderExtender in Panel with Table/TableRows

I am trying to create a dynamic Panel that contains a Table and a number of rows where one or more row will have a TextBox with a slider extender bound to it.  My .aspx file has the following place holder:

<asp:PlaceHolderID="pagePanels"runat="server"></asp:PlaceHolder>

In my code behind (.aspx.cs) I have dummied up the following hardcoded method that is called in the Page_Load method to demonstrate the feasiblity:

private void CreateDynamicPanel()
      {
         Panel panel;
         Table table;
         TableRow tableRow;
         TableCell tableCell;
         TextBox textBox1, textBox2;

         panel = new Panel();
         panel.ID = "panel1";
         panel.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Vertical;
         panel.Height = 600;

         table = new Table();
         table.ID = "table1";
         panel.Controls.Add(table);

         tableRow = new TableRow();
         tableRow.ID = "tablerow1";

         tableCell = new TableCell();
         tableCell.ID = "tablecell1";

         textBox1 = new TextBox();
         textBox1.ID = "textbox1";
         textBox1.Text = "50";
         textBox2 = new TextBox();
         textBox2.ID = "textbox2";

         AjaxControlToolkit.SliderExtender slider;
         slider = new AjaxControlToolkit.SliderExtender();
         slider.ID = "slider1";

         slider.Minimum = (int) 0;
         slider.Maximum = (int) 100;
         slider.Length = 100;
         slider.BoundControlID = textBox1.ID;
         slider.TargetControlID = textBox2.ID;

         tableCell.Controls.Add(textBox1);
         tableCell.Controls.Add(textBox2);

  tableCell.Controls.Add(slider); // Comment out and second text box follows first in-line within row. 
         tableRow.Cells.Add(tableCell);

         panel.Controls.Add(tableRow);

         pagePanels.Controls.Add(panel);
      }

Unfortunately, I cannot determine how to get the slider to "follow in-line" with the text box it is bound to. The slider ends up below the text box, which results in the table row being twice the height as I want it to be:

Update:  sorry, guess I didn't figure out how to get the image in here, so here is a "stick" drawing: 

+-----------------------------+
 |           textBox1              |     <- textBox1 in tableRow
+-----------------------------+
+-----------------------------+
|                ||||                   |       <- slider is undern the text box
+-----------------------------+

If I comment out the line of code that adds the slider to the 'tableCell' controls, I see that the textbox that the slider 'TargetControlID' is set to is indeed in-line where I want the slider extender to be positioned:

 
Update:  stick drawing:

 +-----------------------------+ +----------------------------+
 |          textBox1                |   |          textBox2              |  <- textBox2 follows textBox1 inline within tableRow
+-----------------------------+  +----------------------------+

Is there something that can be done to get the slider to follow the text box inline within the row?

Additionally, I couldn't find any examples of dynamically creating an AJAX SliderExtender (or possibly a NumericUpDownExtender, etc.) and adding it to a dynamically created Panel with a Table and TableRows/TableCells.  I have gotten other weird exceptions in my more elaborate code (the above code snippit is stripped down) and I am concerned about that.  So my last question is whether dynamically adding AJAX controls such as SliderExtender to a dynamically created Table in a Panel is generally not done/possible or are there any other issues I need to be aware of?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
