I have 2 buttons that need to be on the right hand side of a form and have a label on the right. The problem I am running into is that once the action has been performed, the label will read "successfully ...." or "error couldn't..." and it screws up my layout. when the form first appears it screws up my button layouts because the label is empty, then when the action has been performed, my label gets populated with text and then pushes my buttons into the right place. Is there a way to to keep my buttons in place?Here is my layout:\[code\] <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel2" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional"> <ContentTemplate> <div id="dropDownList" style="position: relative;" runat="server"> <label> Select New File: </label> <aspropDownList runat="server" ID="ddlCaseFiles" DataSourceID="dsMyCaseFiles" DataTextField="Display" DataValueField="FileID" OnPreRender="ddl_PreRender" Width="524px" OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlCaseFiles_SelectedIndexChanged" /> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="ddlCaseFiles" ToolTip="Casefile Required" InitialValue="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12822463/-1" Text="*" Display="Dynamic" /> <ajaxToolkit:ListSearchExtender ID="ddlExtCaseFiles" runat="server" PromptCssClass="ListSearchExtenderPrompt" TargetControlID="ddlCaseFiles" BehaviorID="ddlExtCaseFiles" Enabled="True" /> <br />/////////////////////////area of interest <asp:Button ID="btnCancel" runat="server" Text="Cancel" Style="position: relative; float: left; margin-left: 450px;" OnClientClick="parent.$.fancybox.close();" /> <asp:Button ID="btnMoveCaseFile" runat="server" Text="" Style="position: relative; float: right; margin-right: 63px; margin-left: -45px; top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 98px;" OnClick="btnMoveCaseFile_Click" /> <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblStatus"></asp:Label> <br />/////////////////////////////////////////////// </div> </ContentTemplate>\[/code\]I'm trying to get the buttons to light up under the dropdownlist and have the Label show on the same line as the buttons but on the left. (this code has the label on a new line because I gave up)
