Use Session variable in html

I get a session variable from a login form and then redirect to another page:

    String a = Login1.UserName;
    Session["user"] = a;
    Response.Redirect("~/Home.aspx");

In Home.aspx I wish to display in a div something like ” Hello -Session["user"] ” . How can I get the session var and use it in the html code?

Method 1

Use a code block:

Hello <%:Session["user"]%>

Or if before .NET 4.0:

Hello <%=Server.HtmlEncode(Session["user"])%>

Method 2

I was actually trying a lot to get my session value from a page to another html in asp.net.

However some syntactical error was always acting as an hindrance.

In order to solved it, I’ve created a web page and there I initiated the session in the code behind and directed that to the other page.

Note, this is a .html page, so now in the body I used

Hello <%=Session["UserID"]%>

instead of

Hello <%:Session["user"]%>

(which wasn’t working) and it fetched the value from my .cs to my .html file.
