How To Change Page Background Color With ASP.NET Server Side
To change background color of ASP.NET page you need to add bgcolor parameter to <body > tag. By default, body tag is not visible to server side code. First, you need to add runat="server" attribute and some ID to body tag, like this:
<body id="PageBody" runat="server">
After that, in code behind to change background color to some other (e.g. yellow), use this code:
[ C# ]
PageBody.Attributes.Add("bgcolor", "yellow");
[ VB.NET ]
PageBody.Attributes.Add("bgcolor", "yellow")
Note that, if you use ASP.NET 1.1 you need to declare protected variable in page class, like this:
[ C# ]
public
class WebForm1
: System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected HtmlGenericControl PageBody;
...
}
[ VB.NET ]
Public
Class WebForm1
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected PageBody As
HtmlGenericControl
...
End
Class
