Generate Html from VB.net

Expand Post »

Gidday I have a single Array of items (total number of items in array would be variable) that i want to display in a table like format i.e.

html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
<table>
<tr>
<td>ArrayVar[0]</td>
<td>ArrayVar[1]</</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ArrayVar[2]</</td>
<td>ArrayVar[3]</</td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>ArrayVar[0]</td>
<td>ArrayVar[1]</</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ArrayVar[2]</</td>
<td>ArrayVar[3]</</td>

etc...
or

html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
<div style="float:left">ArrayVar[0]</div>
<div style="float:left">ArrayVar[1]</div>
<div style="float:left">ArrayVar[0]</div>
<div style="float:left">ArrayVar[1]</div>

etc...
How can I generate this in VB.net with say a loop I know there was something in .NET 1.1 that could do this & can't find anything for 2.0

Stumaca,

www.asp.net

Check out their tutorials, I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out from there. Their tutorials are excellent for someone starting with ASP.

Re: Generate Html from VB.net

use a string builder if you want to make it yourself.

ASP.NET Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
stringbuilder sb = new stringbuilder;
sb.appendline("<table>");
for (int i=0; i<=arraycount; i+=2) //for vb people it is For I = 0 to arraycount Step 2)
{
sb.appendline("<tr>");
sb.append("<td>");
sb.append(arrayvar[i]);
sb.appendline("</td>");
sb.append("<td>");
sb.append(arrayvar[i+1]);
sb.appendline("</td>");
sb.appendline("</tr>");
}
sb.appendline("</table>");
//now put it on the page - probably using a literal
literal1.text = sb.tostring();
stringbuilder sb = new stringbuilder;
sb.appendline("<table>");
for (int i=0; i<=arraycount; i+=2) //for vb people it is For I = 0 to arraycount Step 2)
{
sb.appendline("<tr>");
sb.append("<td>");
sb.append(arrayvar[i]);
sb.appendline("</td>");
sb.append("<td>");
sb.append(arrayvar[i+1]);
sb.appendline("</td>");
sb.appendline("</tr>");
}
sb.appendline("</table>");
//now put it on the page - probably using a literal
literal1.text = sb.tostring();

or you could use an html writer but this works just as well.
