linking Style sheet in User control

[Gopalan]

Hi

I want to use the <link href="...." type="..."> tag inside the .aspx file.
This style is used by the user control (converting an existing aspx file to
ascx file) which are added to this aspx page.
Please tell me where to put it. It is not working properly now.

Thanks

Hi

I was using <link href="...." type="..."> tag inside the .aspx file.

When I converted this aspx file to ascx file and use it in an aspx file it
is not working properly.

Please tell me where to put it.

Thanks

Could it be that the aspx file that you've added your contol into is not at
the same level of the web folder structure relative to the web root...?

Hi again

Yes

1. the new aspx file is in the root level
2. ascx files are in a subfolder from the root
3. css files are in another subfolder from the root

This is the basic structure I want to maintain to group different types of
files.

Please tell me where I have to change in the code, or any other alternative
method? (one thing I can do is inline style for the ascx file, but it is
tedious to maintain the look and feel in all pages like this)


Thanks

Link stylesheet into page

This piece of code will add the stylesheet into the page where the user control is included.

string relativepath = Page.AppRelativeVirtualPath;

char[] chars = relativepath.ToCharArray();
int counter = 0;

foreach (char c in chars)
{
if (c == '/')
{
counter++;
}
}

string starturl = String.Empty;
for (int i = 1; i < counter; i++)
{
starturl += "../";
}

HtmlGenericControl link = new HtmlGenericControl("link");
link.Attributes.Add("rel", "stylesheet");
link.Attributes.Add("type", "text/css");
link.Attributes.Add("href", starturl + "controls/stylesheet.css");
Controls.Add(link);
Page.Header.Controls.Add(link);

Good luck
