Setting user control property dynamically?

[Dave]

Hi I created a user control that has a property that accepts a url ("NavUrl")..

I tried to set the value as follows directly in the aspx page where strLink would be a link.

<uc1:mycontrol id="mycontrol2" runat="server" HtmlContent="html stuff goes here." ImgUrl="myimage.gif" NavUrl="<%Response.Write(strLink);%>"></uc1:mycontrol

Literal content ('">') is not allowed within a 'ASP.mycontrol_ascx'

The only way I was able to set this property dynamically was on referencing the control in my codebehing and set the property in the page_load()...is this the only way?

HI,


That should work :

Page code :

protected string s()
{
return "\"natty\"";
}


ASPX :
<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
<uc1:a id="A1" URL=<%Response.Write(s());%> runat="server"></uc1:a>
</form>


generate HTML :
<uc1:a id="A1" URL="natty" runat="server"></uc1:a>
