Regarding custom controls - To add align property to label.

[swapna_munukoti]

Hi all,

I am new to asp.net. So, may be my question may be simple. But I am
feeling hard to achieve this.
I need to create a web custom label control, for which I have to
assign new property called "Align". It should have center,left and
right alignments.
I have created a label with this property and set that to textalign.
But it doesnt have center alignment. How can I get center alignment?

And pls tell me as to how to associate that property to the control.

Thanks in advance..

Try using CSS or inline styles to set the alignment. The style in question
is text-align.

If the label fails, as it renders to SPAN (should not, but if), switch to a
Panel control, add a LiteralControl to its Controls property, for the text,
and apply the text-align. Panel renders to DIV, which I am certain can
center align. Try option 1 first.

Thanks a lot...
I got it. I am able to achieve it using style.add()
