MobilePage.AllowCustomAttributes Property

Definition

Gets a value indicating whether controls on the page can have custom attributes defined. The default value is the value of the allowCustomAttributes attribute of the <mobilecontrols> section of the Web.config file. This API is obsolete. For information about how to develop ASP.NET mobile applications, see Mobile Apps & Sites with ASP.NET.

C#
[System.ComponentModel.Bindable(false)]
[System.ComponentModel.Browsable(false)]
public bool AllowCustomAttributes { get; set; }

Property Value

true if the controls on the page can have custom attributes defined; otherwise, false.

Attributes

Remarks

In addition to the IAttributeAccessor interface, the ASP.NET page framework provides a CustomAttributes dictionary that allows you to specify additional attributes, enable or disable custom attributing, or adjust a control's behavior or rendering. To enable or disable custom attributing, you can either set the AllowCustomAttributes property to true, or you can set the allowCustomAttributes attribute of the <mobileControls> section of Web.config to true.

Note

When custom attributes are enabled, typographic errors in property names can be interpreted as custom attributes. For example, if a developer incorrectly specifies the Text property of a control as "Txet", the parser would save it as a custom attribute called "Txet" instead of raising an exception. For this reason, custom attributes are disabled by default.
