Question

Hi there i am trying to do “simple” thing and cant manage to work it out

.net,
in my site i have a nav menu each item in the menu is an image

(like here in the upper “menu” Questions..Tags..etc.. but the background color in my case is an image)

i want to load an image and dynamically add text to it from the server side
i cant manage to add text to it .
what is the best approach
i want to be able to do something like the follow:

<asp:ImageButton ID="imgButton" runat="Server" ImageUrl="nav1.gif" **text=""**/>

and from the server just to be able to write on it something like the follow:

imgButton.text=”AA”

appreciate any help:)
Thank Eran.

Answer 1

you can use css and an unordered list (<ul>) to achieve such an effect. just style the list items (<li>) to have a background image and place asp:labels (which can be access from your code behind to change dynamically) within the listitems
