Question

I would like to have an aspx page that contains something like….

<form id='form1' runas=server >     Hello <%= Me.UserName() %> </form> 

and a code-behind something like…

Public Class Somepage     inherits SomeOtherPage     Private Readonly Property UserName() as String     Get         return 'Rory'     End Get     End Property End Class 

I have tried this code but the aspx errors claiming that UserName is not declared.

What is the proper way to do this?

Answer 1

Mark the property as Protected, not Private.

Protected Readonly Property UserName() as String          Get                   return 'Rory'          End Get     End Property
