In a browser, you can switch the page to design mode to see the text supplied for the HeaderText property displayed in the header area of the zone. For details on how to change page display modes, see Walkthrough: Changing Display Modes on a Web Parts Page.

Remarks

The contents of a zone's HeaderText property are displayed when a Web page enters certain display modes. For example, on a page that has a WebPartZone control, the text assigned to the HeaderText property becomes visible when the page enters edit, catalog, or design mode.

The value of this property, when set, can be saved automatically to a resource file by using a designer tool. For more information, see LocalizableAttribute and Globalization and Localization.
