You could reference controls inside the master page this way:

void Page_Load()
{
    ContentPlaceHolder cph;
    Literal lit;

    cph = (ContentPlaceHolder)Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolder1");

    if (cph != null) {
        lit = (Literal) cph.FindControl("Literal1");
        if (lit != null) {
            lit.Text = "Some <b>HTML</b>";
        }
    }

}

In this example you have to put a Literal control in your ContentPlaceholder.

You can add a div with runat  server  to the page    lt div runat  server  id  myDiv  gt   lt  div gt    and then set its InnerHtml property from the code-behind   myDiv InnerHtml    your html here     If you want to modify the DIV s contents on the client side  then you can use javascript code similar to this    lt script type  text javascript  gt      Sys Application add load MyLoad       function MyLoad sender             get   lt    div ClientID   gt    innerHTML      - text added on client          lt  script gt

You want to put code in the master page code behind that inserts HTML into the contents of a page that is using that master page    I would not search for the control via FindControl as this is a fragile solution that could easily be broken if the name of the control changed    Your best bet is to declare an event in the master page that any child page could handle  The event could pass the HTML as an EventArg

You could reference controls inside the master page this way:

void Page_Load()
{
    ContentPlaceHolder cph;
    Literal lit;

    cph = (ContentPlaceHolder)Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolder1");

    if (cph != null) {
        lit = (Literal) cph.FindControl("Literal1");
        if (lit != null) {
            lit.Text = "Some <b>HTML</b>";
        }
    }

}

In this example you have to put a Literal control in your ContentPlaceholder.
