The UserInfoTable web part isn't interactive: the information flows only from the server to the browser. To make a web part that can interact with members:
Declare the web controls to display in the web part.

End With With _lbl .Width = u.Pixel(100) .Height = u.Pixel(30) End With ' 3) Add the controls in the order to display them Controls.Add(_txt) Controls.Add(_br) Controls.Add(_btn) Controls.Add(_lbl) End Sub ' Display web part. Protected Overrides Sub RenderWebPart _ (ByVal output As System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter) ' 4) Write controls to output stream. RenderChildren(output) End ...
