Using CSS and Changing them Dynamically ASP.NET & VB
This tutorial shows how to implement CSS StyleSheet usage with ASP.NET and how to change them dynamically. VB version.
This tutorial will show how easy it is to implement CSS
stylesheets to an ASPX page, and also how to let the user dynamically
change the look and feel of the website in an instant. In the example
below, we use radio buttons to change between a light and a dark look
to the website. This is done with two separate CSS files:
Two simple example CSS files are as follows.
Dark.css:
body
{
color: #cc0033;
background-color: #996666;
}
.reverse
{
background-color: White;
color: Maroon;
} |
We are using Server Intellect and have found that by far, they are the most friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable support team we've ever dealt with!
Light.css:
body
{
background-color: White;
color: Black;
}
.reverse
{
background-color:Black;
color:White;
} |
To attach the StyleSheet, we add the following code inside the <head> tags:
| <link href="dark.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" id="stylesheet" /> |
The ASPX code will look something like this.
Notice the radio buttons' OnCheckedChanged attributes.
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Label ID="CaptionLabel"
runat="server" Style="font-size: 1.2em; font-family: Arial, 'Times New
Roman', Verdana; background-color: #99ffff"
Text="Label"></asp:Label>
<asp:TextBox ID="NumberTextbox" runat="server" Style="background-color:Blue; color:Yellow;"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Label ID="ResultLabel" runat="server" Text="Label" CssClass="reverse"></asp:Label>
<asp:RadioButton
ID="radioLight" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
GroupName="grpSelectStylesheet" OnCheckedChanged="SwitchStylesheets"
Text="Light" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="radioDark" runat="server"
AutoPostBack="True" Checked="True" GroupName="grpSelectStylesheet"
OnCheckedChanged="SwitchStylesheets" Text="Dark" />
</form> |
The code simply switches the StyleSheets upon radiobutton click. The code-behind should look something like this:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Configuration
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.Security
Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts
Imports System.Web.UI.HtmlControls
Partial Public Class _Default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected Sub SwitchStylesheets(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
If radioDark.Checked Then
stylesheet.Href = "dark.css"
End If
If radioLight.Checked Then
stylesheet.Href = "light.css"
End If
End Sub
