Align a label to the right using ASP.Net

Solution 1

Try something like this:

<div style="text-align:right">
    <asp:Label ID="myLabel" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
</div>

Solution 2

You could put the label in a div and in the label tag put style="float:left".

<div>
    <asp:label ID="myLabel" runat="server" style="float:right"></asp:Label>
</div>

Edit:

Also, for completeness, as mentioned by Aimal Khan you can use it in the code behind as:

myLabel.Attributes.Add("Style", "float: right");

    I have a label on an ASP.NET page. Right now, it looks like this:

    enter image description here

    What I want it to look like is like this:

    enter image description here

    I've tried using a DIV tag, and I've tried using Style="text-align: right" in the <asp:Label> tag, neither of which worked. Any suggestions?

    EDIT: As per the first comment, this is all inside a table tag:

    <asp:Panel ID="Panel2" runat="server" BackColor="#0f6fc6" Height="110px" Width="780px">
       <table style="width:780px">
          <tr>
             <td style="width:90px">
                <asp:Label ID="lblFunct" runat="server" Font-Bold="True" Text="Function" ForeColor="White"></asp:Label>
             </td>
             <td style="width:240px">
                <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlFunction" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" CssClass="textbox" Height="20px" OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlFunction_SelectedIndexChanged" Width="230px">
                </asp:DropDownList>
             </td>
             <td style="width:120px">
                <asp:Label ID="lblRole" runat="server" Font-Bold="True" Text="Role" ForeColor="White"></asp:Label>
             </td>
             <td style="width:240px">

         </tr>
         <tr>

             </td>
          </tr>

          </tr>
       </table>
    </asp:Panel>
