Text Tag

Purpose

The Text code generation tag places text on the page.  There is no limitation to the size of the text specified – you are only limited by the memory and resources on your server.  The Text code generation tag does not create a server-side control, but instead places the actual text within the ASPX page or ASCX control.

Text displayed by the Text tag.
Examples

<GEN:Text Name=“GreatDeals”/>

[Application Generation] properties (Iron Speed Designer)

Property

Description

Text

The text to display..  The text may contain HTML tags, which will be passed through to the page and rendered in the application user’s browser.

Resource File Key

You can also dynamically fetch a text string from your application’s resource file (RESX) at application run-time by specifying a Resource Key.  This is useful in multi-language applications that have multiple resource files, one for each language.  This permits easy application localization by editing your application’s resource file instead of the application itself.  Specify the Resource Key in curly braces, e.g.:

{Txt:MyTextString}

Applies To
