Hi,

I am having a small issue with a checkboxlist and a label.

I need the label (displays error message for the checkboxlist) to be next to the checkboxlist, I have tried a few ways including putting a new html table, span tags but this has not helped.

here is my html, any help would be appreciated.

thanks

XML

<td width="100px">
    Promo Country:<br />
    <br />
    <br />
</td>
<td align="left">
    <asp:CheckBoxList ID="cblCountryAdd"  runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
        DataSourceID="odsCountries" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="Country_Code"
        onselectedindexchanged="cblCountryAdd_SelectedIndexChanged">
    </asp:CheckBoxList>
    <asp:Label ID="lblCountryAdd" runat="server"  ForeColor="Red"></asp:Label>
</td>

The checkboxlist is one of those annoying asp.net controls you have poor control over. It's better than it used to be, but if the html it generates isn't right for you then you'll need to create your own, or a custom version where you control what is rendered. If you google for custom checkboxlist controls, or checkboxlist controls with custom rendering you should find some examples.

Add another td and put your label in that column, you can adjust the width accordingly.

ASP.NET

<td>>
    Promo Country:
</td>
<td >
    <asp:CheckBoxList ID="cblCountryAdd"  runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
        DataSourceID="odsCountries" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="Country_Code"
        onselectedindexchanged="cblCountryAdd_SelectedIndexChanged">
    </asp:CheckBoxList>
    
</td>
<td>
    <asp:Label ID="lblCountryAdd" runat="server"  ForeColor="Red"></asp:Label>
</td>
