image alt tags...

[mattbold]

Hello all,

Can anyone tell me how to add image alt tags to webform images if this is possible? i couldn't find a property for it...

Also I tried using an HTML image instead, but when i referred to it in my VB code behind i kept getting the error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". I've checked that the name in my html matches the name in the code and it does, and i've declared it at the top of my code file with "Protected WithEvents htimg1 As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlImage"... am i missing something out?

Any help on this would be ace because i'm stumped!

cheers,
matt

I don't know if the imagebutton got an alt somewhere, but you can set any attribute with the attributes.add. If you want to add client script to an event you should use attributes.add.
You can put something like this in the page.load:

Dim objImage As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ImageButton
objImage.Attributes.Add("alt", "alt here&quot
objImage.Attributes.Add("you can use anything here", "with any value you like&quot
objImage.Attributes.Add("onClick", "myOnClickFunction(this);&quot




Then Microsoft said, "Let there be .net"; and there was .net.
