Using FindControl() to find control

Question

I have a Literal control that I am trying to locate so I can insert text into it. I have a Master page that contains several content placeholders.

Answer 1

I would try a different approach.

How about using a user control and exposing the relevant properties to get or set the text value.

The property would be accessing the literal control. However, the page calling the property wouldn't be any wiser.

Remember we live in a OO world.
