ASP.NET 4 Unleashed

Handling Repeater Control Events

The Repeater control supports the following events:

• DataBinding— Raised when the Repeater control is bound to its data source.

• ItemCommand— Raised when a control contained in the Repeater control raises an event.

• ItemCreated— Raised when each Repeater item is created.

• ItemDataBound— Raised when each Repeater item is bound.

The page in Listing 13.5 illustrates how you can use the DataBinding, ItemCommand, and ItemDataBound events. This page uses a Repeater control to update, delete, and insert database records (see Figure 13.4).
