    Converting to a variable

    Hi

    I can't do this. I have spent over a week looking/reading books/internet and have got no where.

    I would like to apply an if else statement to an <%# Eval

    I would like to say:

    <%#
    if ((DataBinder.Ev al(Container.Da taItem, "Pn")) !="" )
    {
    string var_Pn = ((DataBinder.Ev al(Container.Da taItem, "Pn")).ToString ())
    response.write = "Find some thing else";
    }

    %>

    I have posted similar before, but have gotten no where and am quite desperate for help.

          You can use like
          [CODE=cpp]<%
          Dim myNum
          myNum = 6
          If myNum = 6 The
          {
          //True part here
          Response.Write( "Variable myNum = 6")
          }
          else
          {
          //False part here
          Response.Write( "Variable myNum = 6")
          }
          %>[/CODE]

              I don't think that this will work inside a Repeater or Datalist. He was using the <%# tags.

              I'm not sure that this is possible. What I've done in the past is use a Literal control, and use my code behind to fill it with a for loop, and the results are just like a repeater.

                  I am unable to understand his topic and the query asked inside (I am not in flow with previous OP’s post), better he should give appropriate topic.
                  [CODE=html]<body>
                  <form id="form1" runat="server">
                  <asp:ScriptMana ger ID="ScriptManag er1" runat="server" />
                  <div>
                  <asp:UpdatePane l ID="UpdatePanel 1" runat="server">
                  <ContentTemplat e>
                  <% for (int i = 0; i <= 3; i++)
                  { %>
                  <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"> </asp:TextBox>
                  <%
                  if (TextBox1.Text == "")
                  {
                  TextBox1.Text = "MyName";
                  }
                  else
                  {
                  TextBox1.Text = "YourName";
                  }
                  } %>
                  </ContentTemplate >
                  </asp:UpdatePanel >
                  &nbsp;</div>
                  <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" />
                  </form>
                  </body>[/CODE]
                  Above sample i tested and I never found any difficult or error to run. Thanks to make myself a conformation.

                  DaveRook, Give appropriate topic and explain your problem in detail. You have to check your code tags. starting with <%# and Closing with %>

                      Yeah, I am a big fan of NOT doing anything inside <%# tags. Control code is for code files, designer code is for design files.
                      I recomend switching to using backend code to controls things, makes life easier when you need to manipulate the data. Divide and conquer and all that.

                          I agree and never prefer <%{Code}%> this code tags inside Html, but it is hard to OP for recode everything in his project. So pointing that way will be simplest to him/her.
