Hyperlink

 Rate It (0)

Use the HyperLink control to create a link that moves you to another page or location on the page. Specify the page or location to link to by using the NavigateUrl property. The link can either be displayed as text or an image. To display text, either set the Text property or place the text between the opening and closing tags of the HyperLink control. To display an image, set the ImageUrl property.

If both the Text and ImageUrl properties are set, the ImageUrl property takes precedence. If the image is unavailable, the text in the Text property is then displayed. On browsers that support the ToolTips feature, the value of the Text property is displayed when the mouse pointer is placed over the HyperLink control.

Text is not HTML encoded before it is displayed in the HyperLink control. This makes it possible to embed script within HTML tags in the text. If the values for the control come from user input, be sure to validate the values to help prevent security vulnerabilities.
