Well, I need to programmically add or change id and class variables to the body element(s) depending on certain behaviors or the current page.  So far I'm failing to be able to initialize this variable in Default.aspx | Page_Init | InitializePage in the vb code.  My body element looks like this:

<body id="Body" class="<%=CurPage%>" runat="server" >

In the properties area I have this:

        Dim currentPage As String = "Home"
        Public Property CurPage() As String
            Get
                If currentPage <> "" Then
                    Return currentPage
                Else
                    Return "Home"
                End If
            End Get
            Set(ByVal Value As String)
                currentPage = Value
            End Set
        End Property

and in the InitializePage() I have this:

currentPage = objTab.TabName

But it's not working.  Any Suggestings?

Coding is like a box of chocolates!...

Hi

Because the body has runat="server" your method does not wok, you need to add teh complete class attribute in code

thsi code is by head so please double check :)

dim BodyClass as string="myspecialbodyclass"
Dim MyBody As Control = Me.Page.FindControl("Body")
Dim objMyBody = CType(MyBody, System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl)
objMyBody.Attributes.Add("class", BodyClass)

But i would not do this in inline code in default.aspx. just make a skinobejct and put that in the skin

<body id="Body" class="<%#CurPage%>" runat="server" >

Should work, but since it's a core hack, doing this programatically is a safer option.
