Instead of Label Use LiteralControl
it might help (not sure)

By the way, why to pick a message from web.cofig? Why not you manage a .cs class for such tasks ?

I will recommend to have a [Static] class named CommonMethods with Method named GetGreetingsMessage().

and you may pick it up via

C#

CommonMethods.GetGreetingsMessage()

Hi,

Instead of shoowing the result in a Label show it in a TextBox like

ASP.NET

<div>
<asp:textbox id="txtSuccess" runat="Server" style="border:none;" readonly="true" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />
</div>

C#

txtSuccess.Text=Server.HtmlEncode(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Success"].ToString()).ToString()

you may add some css for the textbox to look like a label in this case;
Best of luck!

Do the Following Changes
---------------------------

XML

<appsettings>
 <key value="Thank you for purchasing you can add new one <a href='NewItem.aspx'>New Item</a>">
</key></appsettings>

Create a DIV to show the Message.

XML

<div runat="server" id="divSuccess">

</div>

Bind the Data From the Application Setting to Div Created.

C#

divSuccess.InnerHTML=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Success"].ToString();

HTML string in Web.config
