How to put a HTML paragraph on a WebForm

[ad]

I want to put a HTML paragraph on a WebForm in program.
There are HTML tags in the paragraph, I hope the paragraph can render as
normal HTML page.

Which control can I use to place the HTML paragraph?

Literal Control.

Thanks,
The lines of my HTML paragraph is over 300 lines.
But I found the Literal Control can only acept one line.
How can I put the 300 lines HTML paragraph into a Literal Control ?

You don't add the text line-by-line, but first you collect all lines
and THEN assign that (single) string to the .Text property of that
Literal.

string s = "line 1<br>";
s = s + "line 2<br>";
myLit.Text = s;


Note: you will need <br>'s to signal the end-of-line, as this text is
"literal html text", meaning that no translation will be done.

Note 2: if you are adding lots of little strings to build the final
result, you might want to consider using StringBuilder

If your text already contains the endline markers ("\n"), use the
string.replace to replace the "\\n" with the "<br>"

if text is the input(the 300 lines of text with the endline markers)
then

Literal lit = new Liter();
lit.Text = input.Replace("\\n", "<br>");

this should return a HTML friendly text separated into lines.
