You means you want to find 'btnSend'?

Hi,

The DIV element in your panel is an HTML control so you cannot access it directly. To access it in code behind you need to decorate it with runat="server" attribute.

XML

<asp:Panel ID="PanelFL" runat="server"  >
   <asp:Button ID="chatFLclose" runat="server" Text="Close" />
   <div id="DivChat" runat="server" > </div>
   <asp:TextBox ID="txtChat" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
   <asp:Button ID="btnSend" runat="server" Text="Send" onclick="btnSend_Click" />
</asp:Panel>

and you can get access it now as below -

C#

protected void btnSend_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   DivChat.InnerText = txtChat.Text;
}

Use a literal inside the div

XML

<div id="DivChat" >
    <asp:Literal ID="LiteralText" runat="server"/>
</div>

then in your code behind

LiteralText.Text = "Hello world";
