How do you modify a CSS style in the code behind file for divs in ASP.NET?
I'm trying to modify a CSS style attribute for a div based on the information I get from a database table in the code behind of my aspx page. The following is essentially what I am trying to do, but I get errors.
Aspx:
<div id="testSpace" runat="server">
Test
</div>
Code Behind:
testSpace.Style = "display:none;"
testSpace.Style("display") = "none";
What am I doing wrong?
testSpace.Style.Add("display", "none");
It's an HtmlGenericControl so not sure what the recommended way to do this is, so you could also do:
testSpace.Attributes.Add("style", "text-align: center;");
or
testSpace.Attributes.Add("class", "centerIt");
or
testSpace.Attributes["style"] = "text-align: center;";
or
testSpace.Attributes["class"] = "centerIt";
Another way to do it:
testSpace.Style.Add("display", "none");
or
testSpace.Style["background-image"] = "url(images/foo.png)";
in vb.net you can do it this way:
testSpace.Style.Item("display") = "none"
