Question about Response.Write

[Terry Olsen]

Is there any way to make response.write NOT be the first thing on the
page? I have a page with the title and a sub title (not labels or
anything, just typed into the designer). I want the response.write text
to appear below the titles and formatted (bold, sized, centered, etc).
Thanks.

response.write writes to the output steam when its called. controls write to
the response stream during onrender. to have response.write appear between
two controls, you have to call it between the rendering of the controls.
override the onreder of the page, then iterate your children, call the
render, then response.write after the proper control.

it would be easier to use a placeholder control.

maybe a literal control would be your best bet

 

[Steve C. Orr [MVP, MCSD]]

The ASP.NET way is to use a Label (or similar) control to output the text
dynamically at runtime in a position that's been defined at design time.

As Steve adviced.
You could position label anywhere you want

I have a text file that I allow a supervisor to edit. This file contains a
list of items required in disaster recovery kits. When someone views the
web page, I want it to display the contents of the file between the header &
footer of the page. I will try the label idea. I just thought there would
be a way to avoid using any controls on this particular page.

Steve, I just wanted to let you know your last asp.netPro article "Passing
Values - How Do I Pass Values Between Pages, Controls, and Other Objects"
was one of your finest contributions ever. Thank you.
