Adding CSS to ShaePoint Page or Custom Code Page

After a battle i found the solution "How to use CSS class inside a custom webpart page".

So to achieve this goal please follow the bellow steps,

1. Open the Solution File in Visual Studio (Webpart Page)
2. Do the changes in ChildControl Method

protected override void CreateChildControls()

        {

            Control control = Page.LoadControl(_ascxPath);

            Controls.Add(control);

            CssRegistration.Register("/Style%20Library/coreV5.css");

                      

        }

3. If you are creating a runtime table then use as below. In my case i have used this way:

writer.Write("<tr><td><table width='100%' border='0' cellSpacing='0' cellPadding='0'><tr class='ms-WPHeader'><td align='left' class='ms-wpTdSpace'></td><td class='ms-WPHeaderTd'><h3 class='ms-standardheader ms-WPTitle' style='text-align:justify;'><nobr><span>" + productCategory + " </span></nobr></h3></td><td align='right' class='ms-WPHeaderTdMenu'></td><td class='ms-WPHeaderTdSelection'></td><td align='left' class='ms-wpTdSpace'></td></tr></table></td></tr>");

Error: It may have been deleted or renamed by another user

Problem arises when you use ID as query string parameter.Ex: http:xyz:9000/Pages/EditItem.aspx?ID=21.

When we access this in application some times it starts showing up issue that Item doesn’t exists or being deleted by an other user.

Resolution for this issue is not to use ID in query string parameter. And any other key instead of “ID” will start working properly with out showing the above said issue.

Ex: http:xyz:9000/Pages/EditItem.aspx?ItemID=21 will not cause any issues.
