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);

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.
