I want to add styles to the current page from within a usercontrol the
correct(better) way. So i would like to insert the styles in the page head. Any good approach?
I need specific styles for controls inside a gridview template.
Since these are ASP.NET controls they expect a classname, not one or more styles. (Which can be set via code as well) I have > 8 styles to set, so alternatives are pretty cumbersome imo.

We also use CSS classes very heavily. We have our controls reference the classes via CssClass on a server control or "class" on a client tag. We then have the pages reference the .css files containing the definitions of the classes. We have a base page class which emits the correct <link> tags on every page. This works well, without a control attempting to set styles for the page (which is a lot like the tail wagging the dog). John
I have used RegisterStartupScript to inject styles into a web page from a
custom control - just specify that the surrounding script tags should not be generated. This does stick the style data at the bottom of the page ( right before the </form> tag I beleive ) but I haven't seen any browsers so far that had any problem with style blocks outside of the head block.

just a note
after that last post i wondered why I had used RegisterStartupScript as opposed to RegisterClientScriptBlock so I made the change to RegisterClientScriptBlock this works just as well , the only difference is that the block is inserted at the top of the page just below the viewstate div.

i'm not sure if this what you mean by 'duplicate styles' or 'more unique'
but you can ensure that a style block is included only once in the page by using IsClientScriptBlockRegistered before calling RegisterClientScriptBlock as far as not knowing 'all these Register stuff yet' the docs are a wonderful thing and google is just a click away [quoted text, click to view] "Edwin Knoppert" <news@hellobasic.com> wrote in message news:45784053$0$13604$ba620dc5@text.nova.planet.nl... > Hmm, we might need some more fokes over here :) > > RegisterStartupScript, well i don't know all these Register.. stuff yet, > but there are a few afaik. > Of course, there is still the issue of duplicated (multiple) styles with > the same name. > I was wondering if some how we could make this more unique, i can.. > manually but maybe the system offers better stuff. > > > > "gerry" <germ@canada.com> schreef in bericht > news:uWBsA1gGHHA.3780@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >> just a note >> after that last post i wondered why I had used RegisterStartupScript as >> opposed to RegisterClientScriptBlock >> so I made the change to RegisterClientScriptBlock >> this works just as well , the only difference is that the block is >> inserted at the top of the page just below the viewstate div. >> >> Gerry >> >> "gerry" <germ@canada.com> wrote in message >> news:Ob6hSqgGHHA.5020@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... >>>I have used RegisterStartupScript to inject styles into a web page from a >>>custom control - just specify that the surrounding script tags should not >>>be generated. >>> This does stick the style data at the bottom of the page ( right before >>> the </form> tag I beleive ) but I haven't seen any browsers so far that >>> had any problem with style blocks outside of the head block. >>> >>> Gerry >>> >>> "Edwin Knoppert" <news@hellobasic.com> wrote in message >>> news:45781583$0$2026$ba620dc5@text.nova.planet.nl... >>>> First, i'm not sure i posted this in the correct group, there is a >>>> webcontrols group as well, my current problem applies to a custom >>>> control for asp.net (therefore the styles of course :) ) >>>> >>>> -------- >>>> >>>> The idea is that i would like to prepare self-contained controls and >>>> therefore i don't prefer seperate css files. >>>> I was wrong yesterday by mentioning using the server tag for each >>>> control to add styles dynamically to each control. >>>> I just put a styles section directly into my usercontrol html part, it >>>> works but it's not recommended. >>>> Styles should be in the head and preferrable as include. >>>> Well i know that there are webresources but my knowledge about this all >>>> is not that far yet + the usercontrol is not a compiled control since >>>> it still depends to much on the project. >>>> (Like database tables and fields etc + there is no need) >>>> Therefore i choose for styles in the html, the easy way.. >>>> >>>> I'm just figuring out how to deal with things, it's not all that >>>> trivial. >>>> >>>> And then there is the problem of recurring insertions, meaning multiple >>>> instances of my usercontrol on the same page would then insert >>>> duplicate styles (and javascript code) with the same name(s). >>>> >>>> For js there is this asp.net solution to register functionality which >>>> results into one codeblock on multiple inserts. >>>> Maybe this is also available with styles?? >>>> >>>> There are several solutions, i'm working slowly to a better approach >>>> with respect to the complete control, not only this styles issue. >>>> Most of my usercontrols are never required outside the project, it >>>> would cost to much time to make them stand-alone anyway. >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> "John Saunders" <john.saunders at trizetto.com> schreef in bericht >>>> news:uU6jB4fGHHA.4688@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >>>>> "Edwin Knoppert" <news@hellobasic.com> wrote in message >>>>> news:4576c3e3$0$2026$ba620dc5@text.nova.planet.nl... >>>>>>I need specific styles for controls inside a gridview template. >>>>>> Since these are ASP.NET controls they expect a classname, not one or >>>>>> more styles. >>>>>> (Which can be set via code as well) >>>>>> >>>>>> I have > 8 styles to set, so alternatives are pretty cumbersome imo. >>>>>> (We keep the server working this way, instead of the client's browser >>>>>> only) >>>>> >>>>> I don't understand your problem.

First, i'm not sure i posted this in the correct group, there is a
webcontrols group as well, my current problem applies to a custom control for asp.net (therefore the styles of course :) ) -------- The idea is that i would like to prepare self-contained controls and therefore i don't prefer seperate css files. I was wrong yesterday by mentioning using the server tag for each control to add styles dynamically to each control. I just put a styles section directly into my usercontrol html part, it works but it's not recommended. Styles should be in the head and preferrable as include. Well i know that there are webresources but my knowledge about this all is not that far yet + the usercontrol is not a compiled control since it still depends to much on the project. (Like database tables and fields etc + there is no need) Therefore i choose for styles in the html, the easy way.. I'm just figuring out how to deal with things, it's not all that trivial. And then there is the problem of recurring insertions, meaning multiple instances of my usercontrol on the same page would then insert duplicate styles (and javascript code) with the same name(s). For js there is this asp.net solution to register functionality which results into one codeblock on multiple inserts. Maybe this is also available with styles?? There are several solutions, i'm working slowly to a better approach with respect to the complete control, not only this styles issue. Most of my usercontrols are never required outside the project, it would cost to much time to make them stand-alone anyway.

Hmm, we might need some more fokes over here :)
RegisterStartupScript, well i don't know all these Register.. stuff yet, but there are a few afaik. Of course, there is still the issue of duplicated (multiple) styles with the same name. I was wondering if some how we could make this more unique, i can.. manually but maybe the system offers better stuff.
