The code creates as many label controls as the user has selected from the drop-down list. The container for the controls is a PlaceHolder Web server control named Placeholder1

XML

private void DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    DropDownList DropDownList1 = new DropDownList();
    PlaceHolder PlaceHolder1 = new PlaceHolder();

  // Get the number of labels to create.
 int numlabels = System.Convert.ToInt32(DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text);
 for (int i=1; i<=numlabels; i++)
 {
   Label myLabel = new Label();

   // Set the label's Text and ID properties.
   myLabel.Text = "Label" + i.ToString();
   myLabel.ID = "Label" + i.ToString();
   PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(myLabel);
   // Add a spacer in the form of an HTML <br /> element.
   PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("<br />"));
 }
}
