[tadi12345@gmail]

Hi,
I have created a div tag with id and runat server, when the code is inserted from the server side(c#) using inner html of div, the code is inserted, but the data is not shown.
ex.

HTML Code:

<div id="content_container" runat="server" class="xyz">
            
        </div>

C# code

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                GenerateHTMLCode();
                
            }
        }

        public void GenerateHTMLCode()
        {
            content_container.InnerHtml = "<div > " + 
                                        "<p> " + 
                                         "<a   " +
                                            "<asp:Image id=\"xyz\" class=\"xyz\" src=\"\\images\\Blue hills.jpg\" alt=\"\" ></asp:Image>  " +
                                         "</a>  Hi This is xyz!</p> </div>";

             
        }
