C#, how to generate new html Div during foreach loop?
Andrew Henderson
Depend of number of results I got like 3 results and I want to assign each result to label text and put to new Div each new line. How I do that?
Collection<PSObject> output = pipeline.Invoke(); is where I stored results.
Here a sample C# codes,
foreach(PSObject psObject in output) { Label ipLabel = new Label(); ipLabel.Text = psObject + "\r\n"; div1.Controls.Add(ipLabel); }Here a asp.net codes,
<div runat="server"></div>I got the right Label results but it all displayed in 1 div line instead of every div new line .

Ideally, markup manipulation should be done using data-binding within your .aspx file rather than in your codebehind, but anyway:
foreach(PSObject psObject in output) { HtmlGenericControl div = new HtmlGenericControl("div"); div.Controls.Add( new Label() { Text = psObject + "\r\n"; } ); div1.Controls.Add( div );
}This is how I would do it in the aspx file:
<div>
<% foreach(PSObject psObject in output) { %> <div> <%: psObject %> </div>
<% } //foreach %>
</div>Note the use of <%: foo %> which is equivalent to <%= Server.HtmlEncode( foo ) %>.
The "Panel" control outputs a div, so maybe you'd like to wrap the Label there:
foreach(PSObject psObject in output)
{ Panel ipPanel = new Panel(); Label ipLabel = new Label(); ipLabel.Text = psObject; ipPanel.Controls.Add(ipLabel); div1.Controls.Add(ipPanel);
}You could also put a "
" (newline for HTML, roughly) inside the label:
foreach(PSObject psObject in output)
{ Label ipLabel = new Label(); ipLabel.Text = psObject + "<br/>"; div1.Controls.Add(ipLabel);
