Question

How do I access a Control in the LayoutTemplate of a ListView control?

I need to get to litControlTitle and set its Text attribute.

<asp:ListView ID='lv' runat='server'>   <LayoutTemplate>     <asp:Literal ID='litControlTitle' runat='server' />     <asp:PlaceHolder ID='itemPlaceHolder' runat='server' />   </LayoutTemplate>   <ItemTemplate>   </ItemTemplate> </asp:ListView> 

Any thoughts? Perhaps via the OnLayoutCreated event?

Answer 1

Try this:

((Literal)lv.FindControl('litControlTitle')).Text = 'Your text';
