try setting the text of a lable to something like this "<previous"
the lable will resize to 0x0 dunno why. It only happens if "<" is the first character of the text and if there are no spaces after it. At least it happens to me in this one project. What's up with that?
Try changing it to this:
You have to remember that the < and > characters are html characters. They cause errors.Code:<previous
If you ever have problems, you can use my simple tool to convert regular text to html encoded text easily:

umm well yes I thought of that, but, thinking it over, I thought that it shouldn't happen to a lable control since it's not one of those HTML controls. It works fine without the space though, hehe.. thanks, I'll use that < instead
No label is different. It is the literal control you want if you want to keep intact html specific characters so that they are viewed on the page render itself.
