Dear Helper,
I would like to write some text retrieved from a database of a web form.
However, if this text contains links to web sites or e-mail addresses I would
like to render them as Hyperlinks. More than that, I would like to write that
certain text somewhere, let's say inside a table's cell.
Now, I have tried Response.Write( ) , and it works great except the text
appears at the beginning of the page. (do i have to generate the whole page
myself?..can't i just insert some HTML?)
Another thing I tried was inserting the text(already formatted to support
the hyperlinks "<a href... />") into a textbox but then the controls are not
renderd as Hyperlinks, just plain text.
So, can anybody help me with this?
Thank you! 1 986
You can create a PlaceHolder object, then create a HtmlTable control,
populate the HtmlTable with your data in a for or while loop, and then use
the Controls.Add method of your PlaceHolder to put the table where you want
it.
I would suggest though, that you investigate the DataList, DataGrid, and
Repeater controls. You can create a custom control by inheriting any of
those controls, or you can just handle the ItemDataBound event for any of
these controls and format the data item to display how you want it.
You may want to look up those keywords in the MSDN library as a starting
point.
Good luck,

Jargons of Info Tech industry

Xah Lee, 2002 Feb
People in the computing field like to spur the use of spurious jargons.
The less educated they are, the more they like extraneous jargons, such
as in the Unix & Perl community. Unlike mathematicians, where in
mathematics there are no fewer jargons but each and every one are

Is learning to write CSS a better use of time than finding and using a

I've moved to a new platform (Macintosh), taking with me about 400
personal web pages, some dating back so far I probably wrote them in vi.
About 4 years ago (thanks in part to hints found in this group) I
converted about 80 pages to CSS, and was fairly happy with the result,
plain though they are. Since then I've forgotten...

This is what the xsl file looks like. Can I...

I am trying to write the content of one html page to another. But the
problem is it overwrites everything that other html page has.

2.html has some content in it. But when I write to 2.html, the div
content is overwriting everything that is in 2.html and I dont want to
do that.
