Onclick
 

I am not used to programming in ASP.net, i am mainly a C# / Java person, can you explain to me this:

I have a label.. and I want to do something when it is clicked.... ie show another label... i tried this to no avail:

<span><span style="color: activecaption" onclick="<%bestOffer_help.Visible=true;%>">what's this
?</span>&nbsp;<br />


but the label that i want to show was visible as soon as I loaded the page, even though I had visible set to false for it.... none the less... how can i click on a label or text and get it to do something when i click on it

ps: im doing this in ASP.net with c#


many thanks

ASP.net IDE will add all the required code by itself isn't?

Just add a label and double click on it

How often do you see a site where you can just click " some text " and it does stuff ? Asp.Net is not WinForms, it still relies on the old html on the client side. If you want an onclick event , use an <asp:Button or <asp:LinkButton or <asp:HyperLink .

If you want to do it on the client, you can always use JavaScript.

Do take a look at a tutorial on asp.net before asking questions like this.
