Question

Hope its almost clear from above subject line

I want to include a lesser(and greater) than symbol inside my asp:literal

To display something like

Select <Download>

I tried using this

<asp:Literal ID="LiteralDownload" runat="server" 
Text="Select &lt; Download &gt;"/>

But the ASP.NET page doesn’t display the text

Any ideas/help ?

You should set the [LiteraControl‘s Mode property to PassThrough.

The default is Transform: which interpreted as html and does not show up

ltlMetaHolder.Mode = LiteralMode.PassThrough

OR as per commments from OP in this case

ltlMetaHolder.Mode = LiteralMode.Encode
