Creating Tags.

[naregkar]

Hi all,

 

How can I create formatting tags in ASP.NET?

 

For example: <url=http://some_site>Click here</url>

 

"Click here" represents the title of the link which when clicked will redirect to http://some_site.

 

<url=http://some_site>Click here</url> will be written in a textbox with multi-line property and the formatted text will appear in a label control when a button is clicked.

 

How can I do this?

 

Thanks in advance,

Nareg

Rather than a label control you could use the literal control, or alternatively you could use the hyperlink control instead.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply but there is a problem. If I put hyperlink control instead of the label control then I won't be able to use the other tags such as <i> for italics, <b> for bold, <url> for a link, <email> for email.

 

The tags won't be used only for hyperlinks.

 

What I want is the same as this site's vb Code found here.

 

Thanks again,

Did you also look at the literal control like I mentioned?

I'm sorry. I didn't notice the literal control.

I tried it. It is more or less what I want.

 

But as we all know it is based on HTML tags but I don't want that.

For example if in the textbox the user enters <img> an empty pic will appear in the literal control. I want something that blocks such things.

 

How can I do?

Btw, how is this site's code tags formed? What I want is exactly the same!

 

Thanks,

Nareg
