Hi,

I have a problem regarding control(div) in masterpage... i want is to have a control on div(html control) when i'm in the contentplaceholder of the childpage but i can't find how to do it...

i can control textbox, label and button( i can't find the control for div)

masterpage = Materpage.master

childpage = default.aspx

You have to do some things

add runat="server" and an ID to the div tag so that .net can 'see' it
<div runat="server" ID="myDiv"> .... </div>

and either

 - expose it on the Master Page so you can access directly:
public Control MyDiv
{get { return myDiv; } }

or try to find it using FindControl

- Master.FindControl("myDiv")...

But the biggie is to give it an ID and the runat...

Hope that helps,

m

 Hi,

Thanks for the reply... anyway what kind of control is <div> to instantiate with the object...

for example:

Dim x as ? = master.FindControl("mydiv1")

See, as div is html control, you will not find anything in your vb page in find control related to that as it only shows asp controls, Panel which is one kind of division, so you may assign it or just keep it as Object 

Try this:

Dim x as Object = master.FindControl("mydiv1")

or

Dim x as Panel = master.FindControl("mydiv1")

Hi,

div is treated as HtmlGenericControl.

So find it :

Dim c as HtmlGenericControl = (HtmlGenericControl)masterpage.FindControl("");

Hi,

It is not a big task you can set it in server-side :

divid.Style["attribute"]="value of style";

like :

divid.Style["display"]="none";
