Is there an analogue to Rails partials in VB .NET?

Question

I'm new to VB .NET, and if possible, I'd like something like Rails partials - bits of HTML template that can be referenced in a page's script, possibly within a loop. I know there might not be anything like that.

Answer 1

User Controls

Answer 2

You can read html into a string, and spit it out with a placeholder / literal control. the function is like so:

Dim tmp as string = GetHtmlFragement()
Placeholder1.controls.add(New LiteralControl(tmp))

Answer 3

Sounds like a job for jquery.
