I'm interested in adding a linklabel control but it's not listed in the Standard
Toolbox. Is it possible to download additional controls into VWD Express?

a linklable? There is a LinkButton which works like a clickable button but looks
like a link. There is also a HyperLink control, which in the end, generates a
pretty standard <A HREF ..> link.

If you just want to write HTML to a control, you can use the Literal control and
put your HTML into the .Text property.

Thanks, pixelsyndicate.

 I have database records containing an image URL. I want to retrieve this and
display it on the page as a hyperlink. At the moment, I have the following:

 

Online photos at:
            <asp:label ID="Label4" runat="server"
Text='<%# Eval("ImageURL") %>'></asp:label> 
 I want the text to appear as a hyperlink so that I can apply link, visited,
hover and active styles to it.
