  how to add dynamically a control on aspx page with masterpage

  Nov 19, 2011 04:59 PM|LINK

  when adding a literal dynamically it appears after the footer not in the

  <asp:Content ID="Content3" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">

   

  have do i refer to that space in the code behind file ?

  something like

  Page.Controls.Add(New LiteralControl("<h3>Value: "))

  but me.content or me.contentplaceholder doessnt exists ?

  Here is a code sample to try:

  Dim a As New Label
          a.ID = "testing"
          a.Text = "Testing this out."
          Dim c As ContentPlaceHolder = Master.FindControl("MainContent")
          c.Controls.Add(a)

  Thanks,,

  Jason

  this works indeed

  why isnt it referred at like   master.maincontent   ?

  what is there a content id and where is it used for and a placeholder id in one tag

  Master.FindControl("Maincontent").Controls.Add(New LiteralControl("Test"))
