Show ***** only if have a passwordHi;
When displaying a record, I want to show ***** if they entered a password and nothing if they did not. Is there a way to do this in the aspx file or do I need to add a property to the data called ViewPassword? <asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"
TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox> Hello;
This is for viewing a record, not for creating/editing it. So I don't want to use a textbox unless there is a way to mark a text box as read-only (is there?)

Follow on question, is there a reason to use a label? ie, is this: <asp:Label id="lblPassword" runat="Server" Text='<%#Eval("Password").ToString().Equals(String.Empty)?"":"******"%>'/> better than: <%#Eval("Password").ToString().Equals(String.Empty)?"":"******"%> Show quoteHide quote "Phillip Williams" wrote: > If you are databinding within a templated server control, try conditional > evaluation in the databinding expression, e.g. > <asp:Label id="lblPassword" runat="Server" > Text='<%#Eval("Password").ToString().Equals(String.Empty)?"":"******"%>'/> > -- > HTH, > Phillip Williams > http://www.societopia.net > http://www.webswapp.com > > > "David Thielen" wrote: > > > Hello; > > > > This is for viewing a record, not for creating/editing it.

do not need a separate style for this field then the second options would work just as fine.
