Overloads

AddAttributesToRender(HtmlTextWriter)

Adds HTML attributes and styles that need to be rendered to the specified HtmlTextWriter. This method is primarily used by control developers.

AddAttributesToRender(HtmlTextWriter, WebControl)

Adds HTML attributes and styles that need to be rendered to the specified HtmlTextWriter and Web server control. This method is primarily used by control developers.

AddAttributesToRender(HtmlTextWriter)

Adds HTML attributes and styles that need to be rendered to the specified HtmlTextWriter. This method is primarily used by control developers.

public:
 void AddAttributesToRender(System::Web::UI::HtmlTextWriter ^ writer);
public void AddAttributesToRender (System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter writer);
member this.AddAttributesToRender : System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter -> unit
Public Sub AddAttributesToRender (writer As HtmlTextWriter)

Parameters

writer
HtmlTextWriter

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

Remarks

To render attributes and styles for a Web server control on the client, you typically call the HtmlTextWriter.AddAttribute and HtmlTextWriter.AddStyleAttribute methods to insert each attribute and style individually to the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output stream. To simplify the process, this method encapsulates all calls to the HtmlTextWriter.AddAttribute and HtmlTextWriter.AddStyleAttribute methods for every attribute and style associated with the Web server control. All attributes and styles are inserted into the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output stream in a single method call.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to create a class that derives from the WebControl class. The base implementation of the AddAttributesToRender method is overridden to add attributes appropriate to the derived class in the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output stream.

namespace ControlTest 
{
   using System;
   using System.Web.UI;
   using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

   // Renders the following HTML: 
   // <span onclick="alert('Hello');" style="color:Red;">Custom Contents</span>

   public class MyWebControl: WebControl {

      public MyWebControl() : base(HtmlTextWriterTag.Span) 
      { }

      [System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSet(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Demand, Name="FullTrust")] 
      protected override void AddAttributesToRender(HtmlTextWriter writer) 
      {

         writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Onclick, "alert('Hello');");
         writer.AddStyleAttribute(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Color, "Red");
         base.AddAttributesToRender(writer);
      }

      [System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSet(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Demand, Name="FullTrust")] 
      protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter writer) 
      {
         writer.Write("Custom Contents");
         base.RenderContents(writer);
      }
   }
}

Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls

Namespace ControlTest
   
   ' Renders the following HTML: 
   ' <span onclick="alert('Hello');" style="color:Red;">Custom Contents</span>
   Public Class MyWebControl
      Inherits WebControl
      
      
      Public Sub New()
         MyBase.New(HtmlTextWriterTag.Span)
      End Sub
      
      <System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSetAttribute(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Demand, Name:="FullTrust")> _
      Protected Overrides Sub AddAttributesToRender(writer As HtmlTextWriter)
         
         writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Onclick, "alert('Hello');")
         writer.AddStyleAttribute(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Color, "Red")
         MyBase.AddAttributesToRender(writer)

      End Sub

      <System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSetAttribute(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Demand, Name:="FullTrust")> _
      Protected Overrides Sub RenderContents(writer As HtmlTextWriter)
         writer.Write("Custom Contents")
         MyBase.RenderContents(writer)
      End Sub

   End Class

End Namespace 'ControlTest

Remarks

To render attributes and styles for a Web server control on the client, you typically call the HtmlTextWriter.AddAttribute and HtmlTextWriter.AddStyleAttribute methods to insert each attribute and style individually to the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output stream. To simplify the process, this method encapsulates all calls to the HtmlTextWriter.AddAttribute and HtmlTextWriter.AddStyleAttribute methods for every attribute and style associated with the Web Server control. All attributes and styles are inserted into the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output stream in a single method call. This method is typically overridden by control developers in derived classes to insert the appropriate attributes and styles to the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output stream for the class.
