Question

I am working on asp.net using c#. I have one master page with 3 anchor tag links and one html label. When a user clicks on a particular link it should redirect to specific page and the link text should be displayed on the label. I have used following code,

$(document).ready(function () {
            $('#div1 a').click(function () {
                if (focus == true)
                    $('#lblHeader').text("Home");
            });
            $('#blog').click(function () {
                if (focus == true)
                    $('#lblHeader').text("Blog");
            });
            $('#about').click(function () {
                if (focus == true)
                    $('#lblHeader').text("About");
            });
        });

please guide me.

If you have a label server control, changing the text with javascript before a postback occurs will have no effect since the whole page is redrawn.

Edit: I think I know what you are trying to do. Why not create a contentplaceholder in your master page, and set its value in each of the pages?

In your Master page:

<%@ Master Language="C#" %>
...
<asp:contentplaceholder id="PageLabel" runat="server" />

In each content page:

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="PageLabel" Runat="Server" >
    Home <!--or about, or blog-->
</asp:content>
