I have to measure the length of a string in a Label,
to set the adequate Label width
(because not all browsers support the auto-size Label property).

I decide to use the 'MeasureString' method.
It works on a Win Form,
but it doesn't work on a Web Form.

I see the usual blue zig-zag underline
under the 'CreateGraphics' method;
the error says that 'CreateGraphics' is not a member of
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label

Any help?

Here my code:

Imports System.Drawing

               Label1.Text = "Hallo"

               Dim instance As Graphics = Label1.CreateGraphics()
               Dim text As String = Label1.Text
               Dim font As New Font("Arial", 10)
               Dim returnValue As SizeF
               returnValue = instance.MeasureString(text, font)

               Debug.Print(returnValue.Width.ToString)
