Question

i have a user control that i want to build on. right now it just displays a dynamic number. i want to include functionality that will convert the number into a hyperlink that opens a popup window.

label in ascx page:

<asp:Label ID="lbl_num" runat="server" Text="0"></asp:Label>

Answer 1

First of all, you may use the Hyperlink element instead of Label. You should add the Target attribute:

<asp:Hyperlink id="numScore" Target="_new"></asp:Hyperlink>

Anytime, you can change it’s value with C#:

numScore.Target = "_blank";
