How to set anchor for label in web form application in code? c#

I wanted to set anchor for label but in properties of label i could not find anchor field and how can set it by code maybe in style?
I tried to write in page_load label.Anchor but it cant find this class.
.labelName{float: left; text-align: center; margin-left: 810px ; margin-top: 20px;width: 150px; }
</style>
<div class="labelName">
<asp:Label ID="lblGameName" runat="server" Text="Huina Game"> </asp:Label>
</div>

You should use asp:HyperLink that render as anchor or asp:LinkButton if you need to do a postback with server side handler
<asp:HyperLink ID="labelWithLink" runat="server" NavigateUrl="https://stackoverflow.com" Target="_blank"></asp:HyperLink>
<asp:LinkButton ID="labelWithLinkAndPostback" runat="server" OnClick="ServerSideHandler_click" ></asp:LinkButton>

Fire Gridview OnRowCommand on clicking label

I'm having difficulty getting a RowCommand to execute when I click on the label of a GridView.
Here is my code for the gridview.
<asp:GridView ID="JobsGridView" runat="server" OnRowCommand="JobsGridView_RowCommand" EmptyDataText="No builds found" HeaderStyle-CssClass="HeaderColors" AutoGenerateColumns="False" ShowHeader="false">
<Columns>
<asp:ButtonField Text='SingleClick' CommandName="SingleClick" Visible="False"/>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="JobIdLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("BrokenProject") %>' ></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
<RowStyle Width="100%" CssClass=""></RowStyle>
</asp:GridView>
How can I get the JobsGridView_RowCommand function to be called when I click on the label? If I make the buttonfield visible I can see the button saying SingleClick beside it and it does call the function, but I don't want this extra button. I just want to click the name on a list and have something happen.
I know it seems stupid to expect clicking the label to do anything but it seems there are no events for labels, and I've been looking at some similar code and they do something like this...

You could use a LinkButton instead.
<asp:LinkButton ID="JobIdLink" runat="server"
CommandName="SomeCommand"
Text='<%# Bind("BrokenProject") %>' >
</asp:LinkButton>
You could even style it to look less like a link and more like a label.
a:link
{
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited
{
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover
{
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}

Unless you want to write Javascript to handle the click, you'll need a control with the ability to post back to the server, like Andrei mentioned. Inputs (for example a button) and hyperlinks can do that.

Required field validator text positioning

I have problem getting my text from the validation under my textbox. It show up behind my textbox, just like in picture.
In my code for the type of assignment and assignment start textbox i have a css-class setting saying that display = block. That put the validation text under the textbox. If i put that on this element my second textbox end up under the first one (for example, the big empty textbox after the textbox saying AC- end up under the textbox saying AC-). I tried all different solutions but maybe I'm staring myself blind on the problem. I will pust my current code and i hope anyone out there can help me fix this problem.
first my aspx...
<div class="floatLeftPaddTop15PaddLeft40">
<asp:Label id="costCodesLabel2" runat="server" >Cost code 2:</asp:Label><br />
<asp:TextBox id="costCodeTextBox2Prefix" runat="server" CssClass="textBoxPrefix" Visible="false" ></asp:TextBox>
<div class="costCodeDiv" >
<asp:TextBox id="costCodeTextBox2" runat="server" CssClass="textBoxSuffix" ></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="costCodeValidator2" runat="server" ControlToValidate="costCodeTextBox2" ErrorMessage="Cost code is required."
ForeColor="Red" Display="Dynamic" Enabled="false" />
</div>
</div>
then my css...
.textBoxSuffix {
width: 120px;
height: 22px;
border: 1px solid #999;
}.
.textBoxPrefix {
width: 35px;
height: 22px;
border: 1px solid #999;
}

Or you can build the page with a html table ...

space between text and checkbox

I want to have space between checkbox and the text.
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkPublic" runat="server" Text="Public" Font-Bold="true" />
How to get space between checkbox and text. Thanks.
EDIT: I need some css format. Thanks.

<asp:CheckBox ID="chkPublic" runat="server" Text="Public" Font-Bold="true" CssClass="mycheckbox" />
In stylesheet.css
.mycheckbox input[type="checkbox"]
{
margin-right: 5px;
}

A late reply, but hopefully helpful to someone else looking for a solution. You can "quick-and-dirty" add space by embedding non-breaking spaces in the text property value. The advantage is that you can do this for controls that are exceptions to the styles applied elsewhere without having to create a new style sheet for just one control. For example:
<asp:CheckBox runat="server" ID="myCheckBox" Text=" Check this to subscribe" />

I created a style for the label:
label {
font-size: 1em;
color: black;
text-transform: uppercase;
margin-left: 5px;
}
However it will affect the header labels so I also created a style as well:
.lheader {
font-size: 1.5em;
color: #1ca795;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
It worked perfectly on all devices.

Just add &nbsp before the text
in case for example text is generated like this:
Text='<%# Eval("SubCatName")%>'
do it like this:
Text='<%#"&nbsp"+Eval("SubCatName")%>'

You could write it like this:
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkPublic" runat="server" Text="" Font-Bold="true" /> MyText
Or maybe just like that:
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkPublic" runat="server" Text=" Public" Font-Bold="true" />
is a single space in html

How can I make image in text box with no-repeat

I am applying an image to a text box as follows
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Style="background-image: url('Popup(Images)/Solved.png');"
BorderStyle="None" />
This is giving the following result
I tried it applying no-repeat but the image is not getting displayed. can any one help me. Why I am using Text box is the only control which gray out when its property set to disabled or if any one having any idea how to gray out image button with displaying image give me that solution

input.textbox
{
background-image: url('Popup(Images)/Solved.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" CssClass="textbox" BorderStyle="None" />

You can do it like this
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Style="background: #ffffff url('Popup(Images)/Solved.png') no-repeat center center;" BorderStyle="None" />
When using the shorthand property the order of the property values are:
background-color
background-image
background-repeat
background-attachment
background-position

or if any one having any idea how to gray out image button with displaying image give me that solution
You can use a custom style to a disabled input type, as shown in this sample: http://jsfiddle.net/964dL/4/

give background-repeat property in style of your textbox
background-repeat:no-repeat;

style="background: #fff url(images/solved.png) no-repeat 0px 5px;"
