hi all,

What I am attempting to do is at run time create a panel add a link button to it, and then I am trying to place it at a specific position on the webform. I am trying to do this to create a tree of panels on the form, but to do this I need to be able to set the position at run time being that new objects will be added when the webform is running. So far I have been able to create the panel set it's size (hieght and width) place the link inside and display it inside of a placeholder. But try as I might I can not figure out a way to place the label on the webform were I want it to be placed. Any help with this will be greatly appreacated.

Hi Andrew,

You can control this through the Style property:
Panel1.Style["position"] = "absolute";
Panel1.Style["left"] = "400px";
Panel1.Style["top"] = "100px";

Cheers,
