Writing <br> in HTML using C#

[SteveB]

How can I write a break on Web Form using C#?

[Jeffrey Palermo [MCP]]

HtmlGenericControl lineBreak = new HtmlGenericControl("br");
Page.Controls.Add(lineBreak);

This will work for any html tag.

1) Resonse.Write("<br>");
Probably the following will do too...
2) Page.Controls.Add(new System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlControl("br"));

But what's the use of that?

A LiteralControl can also work here.

Thanks for the info. As far as the use here goes....

First of all let me admit that I am very new to C#.
I have established a database with 4 address fields. I know that at
times some of the fields will be empty. I am using a datalist and label
controls to present the addresses. The C# code sets the display property
of the label. I need a break between address lines only when the label
is displayed otherwise I have blank lines. Is there another way?

Having trouble getting the linebreak to appear in the html.
I am using datalist and looping through each label control. If the label
contains information I want to display and at the same time place <br>
at that label instance. If the label is empty I want to set display to
none with no <br>. I am able to switch the display property but I am
having trouble with the <br> part. If I hard code the <br> they cause
new lines even when the label is not displayed.
