Remarks

The InstructionText property contains instructions for users logging in to the Web site. This text is displayed in the Login control, following the title.

If the InstructionText property is set to Empty, no instruction text is available to the user.

The value of this property, when set, can be saved automatically to a resource file by using a designer tool. For more information, see LocalizableAttribute and Globalization and Localization.
