Web Server Controls->ASP.NET Literal Control

Definition and Usage

The Literal control is used to display text on a page. The text is programmable.

Note: This control does not let you apply styles to its content!

Properties

Property Description
id A unique id for the control
runat Specifies that the control is a server control.  Must be set to "server"
Text Specifies the text to display

Examples

Literal
ASPX Source:

<html>
<body>

<form runat="server">
<asp:Literal Text="I love ASP. NET!" runat="server" />
</form>

</body>
</html>
Output Result:
I love ASP. NET!


In this example we declare one Literal control which displays some static text in an .aspx file.

Literal 2
ASPX Source:

<script  runat="server">
Sub submit(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
   Literal1.Text="I love ASP.NET!"
End Sub
</script>

<html>
<body>

<form runat="server">
<asp:Literal id="Literal1" Text="I love ASP!" runat="server" />
<br><br>
<asp:Button Text="Change Text" OnClick="submit" runat="server" />
</form>

</body>
</html>

Output Result:
I love ASP!

  

 If  you click the button "Chang Text", it will show:

I love ASP.NET!

  

In this example we declare one Literal control and one Button control in an .aspx file. When the user clicks on the button, the submit subroutine is executed. The subroutine changes the text of the Literal control.
