StyleSheet Control

Definition and Usage

The StyleSheet control defines styles to apply to other controls.

The StyleSheet control can contain any number of <Style> elements. Each Style element must have a unique name. The name may be used to refer to each Style element from other controls on the same page.

A mobile page can also use an external style sheet. To create an external style sheet, you create a user control and a StyleSheet control in an .ascx file. To refer to this file, you add a StyleSheet control on a page and set its ReferencePath property to the URL of the .ascx file.

Properties

Example 1

The following example is an .aspx page with two labels in a form. Each label has a reference to an internal style. The text in the first label will be displayed in bold and the text in the second label will be displayed in red:

<%@ Page Inherits="System.Web.UI.MobileControls.MobilePage"%>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="Mobile"
Namespace="System.Web.UI.MobileControls"
Assembly="System.Web.Mobile" %>

<Mobile:StyleSheet runat="server">
  <Style name="title" Font-Bold="true" />
  <Style name="message" ForeColor="red" />
</Mobile:StyleSheet>

<Mobile:Form id="f1" runat="server">
  <Mobile:Label runat="server" Text="Hello W3Schools!"
  StyleReference="title" />
  <Mobile:Label runat="server" Text="This is a nice day!"
  StyleReference="message" />
</Mobile:Form>
