How do you use variable in html tag, such as:
<a href="<%=getVariable%>Test</a>

thanks.
 
Well, the ASP.Net way would be to make that a server control and access it
in your page lifecycle:

<a id="test" runat="server" />

codebehind:
Protected test as HtmlAnchor

sub Page_load(...)
Test.HRef = "Blah.aspx"
end sub


if you insist on doing the <%=getVariable%> route, you'll need to define
getVariable as a protected string.

thanks, but I ahve dont that and it won't work, If I place the variable
on hte page (outside the tag description), it does render properly.
Thanks,
 
How and where is the variable declared? Is this inside a
repeater/datalist/datagrid?

Any time you might want to provide code :)

Are you sure it's being set ? When is it being set? If you are trying to
use it within a bound control (repeater, datalist, datagrid...), you might
need to use %# instead of %=

<a href='<%#getVariable%>'>Test</a>
