Question

I am trying to use the server control for an asp checkbox:

<asp:CheckBox ID="generalInformation"
    ClientIDMode="Static"
    class="SetupChecklist"
    name="generalInformation"
    CssClass="SetupChecklist"
    runat="server" />

However it does not seem to be retaining the class, which I need it to do. Am I missing something?

Here is how it renders on the web page:

<input type="checkbox"
    name="ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$generalInformation"
    id="generalInformation">

Answer 1

ah…….

this is the problem:

runat="server" checkbox is render to span + input…

the span gets the class not the input….

 <span class="SetupChecklist" class="SetupChecklist" name="generalInformation">
<input id="generalInformation" type="checkbox" name="generalInformation" /></span>
