Getting Started with the Rating Control

All you have to do to use our Rating control is to register it on you page and save the received file as desired.

<%@ Register 
    	Assembly="SharpPieces.Web.Controls" 
    	Namespace="SharpPieces.Web.Controls" 
    	TagPrefix="piece" 
%>

Declare the control in your ASPX/ASCX code like below:


<piece:Rating 
    	runat="server" 
    	id="ratingRed" 
    	CssClass="RatingRed" 
    	CurrentRating="2" 
    	ItemHeight="20"
    	MessageList="Choose...,1,2,3,4,5"
/>

Next, you need to make sure you have the css for the control set up.

    
.RatingContainer {display:block; float:left; clear:both; width:400px;
    min-width:400px; margin-bottom:10px}
.RatingContainer .ImageContainer {float:left; background-image:url(stars.gif); 
    background-repeat:no-repeat; width:130px; height:20px; line-height:20px; position:relative }
.RatingContainer .TextContainer {}
.RatingContainer .ImageContainer .item {height:20px;width:22px;float:left; cursor:pointer; 
    cursor:hand}
