• Add the above code in asp.net page
• Cover the label with div tags and use a class "more" like showing in below code

 <div class="more">  
 <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text=""></asp:Label>  
 </div>  

The JavaScript code will search the more class in asp.net design page and apply the more / less functionality.
