Dynamically adding Style Sheet Reference in ASP.Net

In ASP.Net, many times there are scenarios when you want to add a style sheet (CSS) reference to your page from the code behind. Usually, we can do a line (example below) in the page and we are done.

<LINK REL='StyleSheet' HREF='manas.css' TYPE='text/css'>

To do something like this from codebehind, you can use the snippet below.


public void AddHeaderStyleSheetReference(Page PageObject, string StyleSheetURL)
{
	if (PobjPage.Header != null)
	{
		HtmlGenericControl StyleSheet = new HtmlGenericControl("Link");
		LobjStyleSheet.Attributes.Add("Rel", "StyleSheet");
		LobjStyleSheet.Attributes.Add("Type", "text/css");
		LobjStyleSheet.Attributes.Add("HRef", PageObject.ResolveClientUrl(StyleSheetURL));
		PageObject.Header.Controls.Add(StyleSheet);
	}
}

A similar approach can be made to add the JavaScript file references to you page.


public void AddHeaderScriptReference(Page PageObject, string ScriptURL)
{
	if (PageObject.Header != null)
	{
		HtmlGenericControl IncludeScript = new HtmlGenericControl("Script");
		LobjIncludeScript.Attributes.Add("Type", "JavaScript");
		LobjIncludeScript.Attributes.Add("CharSet", "UTF8");
		LobjIncludeScript.Attributes.Add("Src", PageObject.ResolveClientUrl(ScriptURL));
		PageObject.Header.Controls.Add(IncludeScript);
	}
}
