This is my default.aspx code(create a table with 1 row and 2 cells)

XML

<div id="id1">
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td>
        <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" 
            DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataTextField="firstname" 
            DataValueField="firstname" AppendDataBoundItems="true" >
            <asp:ListItem  Text="All" Value="-1" />
        
        </td>
        <td>
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" BackColor="#E1E1E1" 
            Text="Display Report" onclick="Button1_Click" OnClientClick="html()" />
            </td>
           
            </tr>
</table>
</div>

This is my default.aspx.cs code..Here i ahve created dynamically table using stringbuilder..

C#

StringBuilder strhtmlcontent = new StringBuilder();
//table starts
strhtmlcontent.Append("<table align="Center" style="background-color:#" border-collapse:collapse="" cellspacing="0" rules="all" border="1" width="100%" xmlns:border-collapse="#unknown"><th width="8%" bgcolor="#DFDFFF">FirstName</th><th width="10%" bgcolor="#DFDFFF">Product Name</th><th width="10%" bgcolor="#DFDFFF">Client Name</th><th width="10%" bgcolor="#DFDFFF">Amount</th><th width="10%" bgcolor="#DFDFFF">Activity Date</th>");

strhtmlcontent.Append("</table>");
//table Ends

When i run the project.. table created in default.aspx page is below that of dynamically created table..

Means like this
//table1 (dynamic using stringbuilder)
below
//table2 (static on aspx page)

But i want...like this

//table2 (static on aspx page)
below
//table1 (dynamic using stringbuilder.)

thanks

If you were able to successfully append, you could insert as well using StringBuilder.Insert(int, string), call it with zero index.

Solution 2

In your aspx page, you could also use an asp:Literal control to define the location where you want table2 to appear.
i.e.
aspx:

XML

<asp:literal id="litTable1" runat="server" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />
<table id="table1" ...="">
   ...
</table>

.cs:

C#

...
StringBuilder strhtmlcontent = new StringBuilder();
// build your table
litTable1.Text = strhtmlcontent;

5 for this, it's what I would have typed except I couldn't remember the tag/property names :p

Thanks. I find that I have to do this a lot more often than I would like, so it remains fresh in my memory.

Right, a 5. I would just repeat what Bob have said above. :-)
