Vote:
whenever checking CurrentPage.Property["tableofcontents"] value returning null even though property names tableofcontents has value or data.what can be problem?

Remember that the EPiServer property name is case sensitiv. Make sure it is spelled correctly by copying the name from the admin interface. Do you get any data when adding <EPiServer:Property runat="server" PropertyName="tableofcontents" /> to your page?

CurrentPage.Property["tableofcontents"].ToString() is giving value but whenever we try to check null value using this line of code CurrentPage.Property["tableofcontents"]!=null then it always gives null value.why?

Following is code on aspx page:
<div id="spotlight_publications1" >
<ul>
<episerver:PageList PageLinkProperty="PageLink" paging=true PagesPerPagingItem=10 runat="server" ID="publications" >
<ItemTemplate>
<% if (CurrentPage.PageLink.ID==4946)
{%>
<table border="0" width="100%" >
<tr>
<%
try { if(CurrentPage.Property["SpotlightImage"]!=null )
{%>
<td valign=top > <img src='<%# Container.CurrentPage.Property["SpotlightImage"]%>' alt="Image" width=90 height=75 align=left/></td>
<%}
else
{%>
<td valign=top > <img src=../../images/hrsummit.jpg alt="Image" width=90 height=75 align=left/></td>
<%}}
%>
<% catch(Exception ex)
{}
%>
<td >
<table >
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<div id="red_title">
<episerver:property PropertyName="PageLink" runat="server" ID="Property2" name="Property1"/>
</div>
</td>

If you're using it inside the PageList you have to add Container.CurrentPage.Property["tableofcontents"] != null

Btw. - don't think property names are case sensitive.
CurrentPage.Property["propname"] will give you the PropertyData object, not the value.
CurrentPage["propname"] will give you the value, or null if the value is null or the property does not exist on the page.

You're right Steve, just did a test and both Test and test work for ProperyName.
