where i am wrong
-
I have a hyperlink control code that need to bind from a database. However, I am still not very familiar with this. Can somebody help me? And may you tell me the rules about bind data to html code? The italic part is the wrong code.... <asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl='index?titlename='<%# container.dataitem("title") %> Runat ="server" ><%# container.dataitem("title") %></asp:HyperLink>

Hi there. Do a Google search for "DataBinding Syntax". There are lots of articles on this topic. I can see two possible problems with the code - the single quote delimiters should include the databinding too, and you may need to either cast the
Container.DataItemobject or useDataBinder.Eval. If your datasource is aDataTablefor example, you can cast the object as aDataRowView. C#NavigateUrl='index?titlename=<%#((DataRowView)Container.DataItem)["title"] %>'
In VB:
NavigateUrl='index?titlename=<%# CType(Container.DataItem, DataRowView)("title") %>'
DataBinder.Eval syntax would look like this:
NavigateUrl='index?titlename=<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "title") %>'
