Adding a hyperlink to a sentence of text in a bulleted list
-
Attributes.Add()method takes 2 arguments, this code shouldn't compile at all. You should ideally be usingListItem.Textproperty to render your output. -
When I dynamically populate the .text property, I get an Object reference not set to an instance of an object error. System.NullReferenceException.
-
protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem liBullets;
private const string BULLETTHREELBHL = "Employee earnings can be submitted through the <a href=\"/EECHG/FW_DEFAULT.ASPX?Serviceid=EECHG&title=Employee+Changes\">Employee Changes</a> service by a plan administrator with access to update employee changes.";
this.liBullets.Text = BULLETTHREELBHL;
<ul>
<li id="liBullets" />
<li>To Access Google, click <a href="http://google.com">here</a></li>
<li><a href="http://bing.com">This</a> takes you to Bing</li>
</ul> -
protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem liBullets;
private const string BULLETTHREELBHL = "Employee earnings can be submitted through the <a href=\"/EECHG/FW_DEFAULT.ASPX?Serviceid=EECHG&title=Employee+Changes\">Employee Changes</a> service by a plan administrator with access to update employee changes.";
this.liBullets.Text = BULLETTHREELBHL;
<ul>
<li id="liBullets" />
<li>To Access Google, click <a href="http://google.com">here</a></li>
<li><a href="http://bing.com">This</a> takes you to Bing</li>
</ul> -
I have to declare the* id, and protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem liBullets; is incorrect. That appears to be reserved for drop-down or list boxes. I'm not sure what type the
- is to be decalred as.

You should have told this earlier, try this:
System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl liBullet = new System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl("li");
-
What property do I use in liBullet? There doesn't seem to be a text property, and innertext didn't work.
