NoWrap in ASP.Net

02 November 2014 Dave-Stuart ASP.NET, CSS

If you want your table column to not wrap in ASP.Net, you can use the NoWrap property in the tag like so:

  1. <td nowrap="nowrap">  
  2.  content  
  3. </td>  

This makes the code xhtml compliant and prevents warnings in the source view of designer in Visual Studio. Normally you could just specify a nowrap attribute by itself in plain html.

Or the CSS equivalent of setting nowrap:

  1. <td style="white-space:nowrap;">  
  2.  content  
  3. </td>  

Again, using the first option will prevent warnings in source view.

Programmatically Setting a Page’s Title

02 November 2014 Dave-Stuart SharePoint 2010

I recently needed to change the Title of an Application Page in SharePoint 2010 from code behind. This is how I did it in Page_Load...

So the sequence goes:

  1. Get a reference to the appropriate Content Placeholder
  2. Clear out anything that SharePoint might have put in it already
  3. Put your content in.

Or, in C#:

ContentPlaceHolder contentPlaceHolder = (ContentPlaceHolder) Page.Master.FindControl("PlaceHolderPageTitle");

contentPlaceHolder.Controls.Clear();

LiteralControl literalControl = new LiteralControl();

literalControl.Text = "Your text goes here";

contentPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(literalControl);
