.net - how to add a div to container div in c# code behind

Question

ASP.NET, C#

As the title suggests I was wondering if anyone knew how to programatically (c# code behind file) add a div to another a container div (in the aspx page).

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

//create new instance of div and set all the values like the ID Check out the short Code example. It worked for me to create Divs in a web add

System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl NewDiv = new 
    System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl();
    NewDiv.ID = "divcreated";

or

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl createDiv =
    new System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl("DIV");      
    createDiv.ID = "createDiv";
    createDiv.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.BackgroundColor, "Yellow");
    createDiv.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Color, "Red");
    createDiv.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Height, "100px");
    createDiv.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Width, "400px");
    createDiv.InnerHtml = " I'm a div, from code behind ";
    this.Controls.Add(createDiv);
}
