My asp:label doesn't show my text ID.

My If statement is working fine... I'd like to show the following label in my .ascx code. Could you please adjust my code

protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label searchInstructions;

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Set Go Button
_ibtGo.ImageUrl = "/common/images/misc/button_go_grey-e.gif";

// english Category
searchInstructions.Text = "Artist Name:";

if (Sitecore.Context.Language.ToString() == "fr")
{
_ibtGo.ImageUrl = "/common/images/misc/button_go_grey-f.gif";

// french Categorie
searchInstructions.Text = "Nom de l'artiste:";
}
}

================
This is my output
-------------------------
<TR>
                  <TD colSpan="2">
                        <P><BR>
                              <asp:Label id="searchInstructions" for="TextBox" runat="server">Label</asp:Label></P>
                  </TD>
      </TR>
      <tr>
            <td width="10%"><asp:TextBox ID="_txtSearch" runat="server" CssClass="main"></asp:TextBox></td>
            <td width="90%" valign="bottom"><asp:ImageButton ID="_ibtGo" runat="server" OnClick="_ibtGo_OnClick" /></td>
      </tr>

Hi Strickdd,

Here is the code, please advice where I should put it. I'm new in C#.

ContentSearchableListOfWorks.ascx ContentSearchableListOfWorks.asc.cs

Thankyou.

strickdd

I'm not sure if this is how it is or if it was just during the posting, but the first issue I see is that your code-behind file is called "ContentSearchableListOfWorks.asc.cs" - missing an "x". It should be "ContentSearchableListOfWorks.ascx.cs"

Next, is this .Net 1.1? If it is .Net 2.0+, then you shouldn't be declaring all your controls in the code-behind and since you are using partial classes, I believe you are on 2.0+. This leads me to believe that the missing "x" is probably the problem.
