Gets or sets the unique identifier name associated with the HtmlSelect control.
(in System.Web.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Property Name As String
Dim instance As HtmlSelect
Dim value As String
value = instance.Name
instance.Name = value
public string Name { get; set; }
public:
property String^ Name {
String^ get ();
void set (String^ value);
}
public function get Name () : String
public function set Name (value : String)
<asp:HtmlSelect Name="String" />
Use the Name property to determine the unique identifier name for an HtmlSelect control. In this implementation, the get accessor returns the value of the Control..::.UniqueID property. However, the set accessor does not assign a value to this property.
.gif) Note: |
|---|
The set accessor does not assign a value to this property because the Name property must have the same value as the Control..::.UniqueID property for the HtmlSelect control to work properly. |
The following code example demonstrates how to use the Name property of the HtmlSelect control to select a specific item in the Items list.
