Because the contents of a Literal control are not contained in a <span> tag, the Literal control does not support any of the formatting properties supported by the <span> tag.
For example, the Literal control does not support either the CssClass or BackColor properties.
The Literal control does support one property that is not supported by the Label control: the Mode property. The Mode property enables you to encode HTML content. The
Mode property accepts any of the following three values:
- PassThrough : Displays the contents of the control without encoding.
- Encode : Displays the contents of the control after HTML encoding the content.
- Transform : Displays the contents of the control after stripping markup that is not supported by the requesting device.
