Inline data

[tshad]

Is there a way to put inline data in a label?

For example, I would normally do something like this to put a name that I
have in my session variables in my asp:label:

Name.Text = Session("FullName")
....

<asp:Label ID ID="Name" runat="Server">

Can I get around the extra code by just doing something like (I know this
doesn't work):

<asp:Label ID="Name" Text='<%# session("FullName") %>' Runat="Server">

Similar to Binding to a variable, but get it directly from my session
variables?

Also, could I do a similar thing from a function (Obviously, if you can't do
the above - you probably can't do this):

<asp:Label ID="TotalAmount" Text='<%# MoneyFormat(Session("Total")) %>'
runat="Server"/>

Where MoneyFormat is a function I might use to format my session variable in
some money format.

Thanks,

Tom

not really inline but you could do it with the page load event in an
"inline" style... would that suffice?

Your just saying to do the Name.Text = Session("FullName") in the Page_Load
notPostback?
