populate a html list control using .NET

Question

I have a list defined like so:

    
Item 1
    


        

Answer 1

You could use asp:BulletedList like

Add add code like

ListItem item = new ListItem("Item2");
item.Attributes.Add("class", "MyClass");
MyList1.Items.Add(item);

Or if for some specific reason you need to use the ul tag then you can add a runat="server" to it. E.g.

  
Item1

With code like

HtmlGenericControl li = new HtmlGenericControl("li");
li.Attributes.Add("class", "MyClass");
li.InnerText = "Item2";
MyList2.Controls.Add(li);
