My vote of 1 for writing gibberish. A person can only get some help if she or he understand what should be achieved.

Solution 2

If you want to apply CSS for controls using Code-behind then try this

ASP.NET

<asp:panel id="Panel1" runat="server" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
Hello World
</asp:panel>

C#

Panel1.CssClass = "PanelStyle";

or

C#

Panel1.Attributes.Add("class", "PanelStyle");

am not using any controls..

thatraja 14-Nov-11 8:31am

Your question makes no sense, Can you explain more about that?

balavino 14-Nov-11 8:41am

for eg,
string something="<table style="color:Red;"></table>";//it can be working..in codebehind C#

string something="<table class="somename"></table>";//it cannot working
why?....
is it possible....

thatraja 14-Nov-11 8:44am

Did you create the CSS class in that page?

balavino 14-Nov-11 8:49am

no...

Yvan Rodrigues 14-Nov-11 8:56am

That class needs to be define in an external stylesheet OR in an embedded stylesheet.

balavino 14-Nov-11 8:59am

plz explain clearly...

thatraja 14-Nov-11 9:00am

then it won't work.

Solution 3

You cannot do so.

CSS is for styling controls (not variables).
Styling a variable makes no sense.

To apply CSS a variable in Codebehind requires that you use controls (Web forms).

string is used to send mail purpose

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 14-Nov-11 13:47pm

So what? This is not related to styles.

balavino 14-Nov-11 9:00am

if using webforms its working....

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 14-Nov-11 13:47pm

No. Just stop it.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 14-Nov-11 13:46pm

Exactly, my 5. I don't understand why could someone vote 4 for this answer, which is the only possible one.

OP is beyond repair. :-<
However, I'll vote 5 for this solution which could give a right idea -- but only to a right person :-),
voting 3 for this answer was ridiculous.

Use <DIV id="Test" runat="server">Your Content <Div> Table you can't access On server side.
