I have set up an animation and it works fine. I need this animation to fire only on certain conditions which are determined on the server side during OnLoad.

How can I modify the animation from OnLoad so that nothing happens when the condition is not true?

Thanks 

<div id="emailAddressLabelDiv" runat="server" style="width:100%; border: 1px solid rgb(102, 102, 102); ">

Hi ilako,

There are a few ways you could do it.  The easiest would be setting openAnimation.OnLoad = null; when your condition was false.  These threads provide more details about manipulating animations server-side: http://forums.asp.net/thread/1410861.aspx, http://forums.asp.net/thread/1402943.aspx, and http://forums.asp.net/thread/1405549.aspx.
