Question

but can\

Answer 1

If you want to add the value on aspx page , Just enter <a href='your link'>clickhere</a>

If you are trying to achieve it via Code-Behind., Make use of the Hyperlink control

HyperLink hl1 = new HyperLink();
hl1.text="Click Here";
hl1.NavigateUrl="http://www.stackoverflow.com";

Answer 2

Asp:Hyperlink http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.hyperlink.aspx

Answer 3

I agree with SLaks, but here you go

   <asp:HyperLink id="hyperlink1" 
                  NavigateUrl="#"
                  Text=""
                  runat="server"/> 

or you can alter the href using

hyperlink1.NavigateUrl = "#"; 
hyperlink1.Text = string.empty;

Answer 4

hyperlink1.NavigateUrl = "#"; or
hyperlink1.attributes["href"] = "#"; or
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="#" runat="server" />

Answer 5

Just write <a href="#"></a>.

If that's what you want, you don't need a server-side control.

Answer 6

If you need to access this as a server-side control (e.g. you want to add data attributes to a link, as I did), then there is a way to do what you want; however, you don't use the Hyperlink or HtmlAnchor controls to do it. Create a literal control and then add in "Your Text" as the text for the literal control (or whatever else you need to do that way). It's hacky, but it works.
