Hi,

Try this

<asp:Button id="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" Width="256px"
style="TEXT-ALIGN: left"></asp:Button>

This align the text left for the button

Thanks

Anybody know how to do this "in the code behind the form"? We have a class defined to handle button mouseover behaviour and the like. We would like the ability to add the text alignment to the form. While editing the HTML does work, it would be easier if we did not have to edit every single button on the web page

Thanks

Hi, Timothy Swanson,

You can create a style and then assign it to the buttons. something like
this:

<style type="text/css">
..leftAlign
{
text-align: left;
}
</style>

then assign it:

button1.CssClass = "leftAlign";
button2.CssClass = "leftAlign";
etc.

Hope this helps

Thanks Martin

That is getting closer, but it still involves editing the HTML code
I have tried making definitions in Styles.css and they are all ignored

Are there any other ideas, or should I stick with what works

Thanks again

Validate your CSS. When CSS is bad, you dont get errors. It just doesnt work.
