Doubt In Datalist

[Vipin Venugopal]

Hi friends, I just have one small doubt. I just inserted one button into the itemtempelate of a datalist and without writitng any code i ran the project. i tried the same with repeater and datagrid. but the button inserted was not to be seen in any of the above mentioned controls. Where as when i inserted a button to a form i was able to see that button. can anyone tell me why is it like that. Vipin

The DataList control is a data-bound control like Repeater, DataGrid. It means you need to bind a datasource to the control to create the UI, otherwise the control displays nothing. You can read more about how to use these controls in MSDN.
