Write Panel's innerText

[dw]

Hello, all. I'm using a Panel to display the values the user entered into a
form upon validation. The panel is mainPanel and its visibility is set to
False server-side until the IsValid returns True. Then I wish to write the
form values out into it. How do I do this? I've looked at the
RenderBeginTag, but is that what I need? Thanks

A panel can contain other controls, in particular label controls. Can you
not just write to those, and when you do mainPanel.Visible=True they will
also appear.

I have also seen people add runat=server to <span> elements inside a panel
and then assign text to their innertext property. I believe this is
equivalent to create a label controls and just setting their text property.

Thanks, again, Greg. Never thought of using a Label. One more question: How
do you take a name like JANE SMITH when entered by the user and convert it
into Jane Smith? I've got this in the showPanel() sub, but it's not setting
the text of the label inside the Panel to the correct format:

Me.lblLastNamePostback.Text = "Last Name: " &
Request.Form("txtLastName").ToLower().Substring(0, 1).ToUpper()


Thanks for all your help.
