RangeValidator.AddAttributesToRender(HtmlTextWriter) Method

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Web.UI.WebControls
Assembly:
System.Web.dll

Adds the HTML attributes and styles for the control that need to be rendered to the specified HtmlTextWriter object.

protected:
 override void AddAttributesToRender(System::Web::UI::HtmlTextWriter ^ writer);
protected override void AddAttributesToRender (System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter writer);
override this.AddAttributesToRender : System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter -> unit
Protected Overrides Sub AddAttributesToRender (writer As HtmlTextWriter)

Parameters

writer
HtmlTextWriter

An HtmlTextWriter that represents the output stream to render HTML content on the client.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to override the AddAttributesToRender method in a custom server control so that the RangeValidator text always displays as bold.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.
