How to show variable on webpage?

I'd like to display a string variable on a webpage depending if the URL
has "localhost" in it or not. The string variable will have line
breaks and this text:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

How do I go about accomplishing this?

Thanks,
Brett

Using a placeholder on the page, and a LiteralControl to hold your "text":

if(Request.Url.IndexOf("localhost") !=-1)
{

myPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("yourtexthere"));

}

That doesn't allow me to put a string such as


var sc_project=116000;
var sc_invisible=1;

Why doesn't the c# @ for literals work in ASP.NET?

Thanks,

You have to be specific about what you really want to do. It looks now like
what you are saying is "I want to embed some client side script in my page".

For that, you can use the Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock method:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfSystemWebUIPageClassRegisterClientScriptBlockTopic.asp

Cheers.

Yes - that is what I want to do. I have the code running fine but I
never see the javascript in the webpage. I'm using code behind rather
than c# script tags. Does that make a difference? I'm doing
everything on Page_Load() in the CS file.

Thanks,
Brett

It doesn't make any difference.
If you have any more questions just post it
