Hi All

I need to get the blogs name without the hyperlink data added to it.
I know that

<asp:HyperLink CssClass="headermaintitle" id="BlogTitle" runat="server" />

 returns a correctly formatted link, but I need just the name portion.

I've found where the link is created in the controls, but there is no direct access to just the name portion.

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

Bruce

I'm still looking for a more CS based answer if anyone has one.

For name, do you mean "THE_NAME" in site.com/blogs/THE_NAME/about.aspx?

Quick and dirty, on a blog page would be <%= CSContext.Current.ApplicationKey %>.
 
Thanks,
Scott

Hi,

I am assuming you are using the CS 2.1 version still right? In the newest version, CS 20007, you can using get the name as follow:

In your Theme theme.Master file:

          Get the Name:  <CSBlog:WeblogData runat="server" Property="Name" />
          Get the Description:  <CSBlog:WeblogData runat="server" Property="Description"  />

Hope this helps,

Yama
