<ItemTemplate>
<tr class="DataListStyle">
<td><%# Html.Encode((string)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Title"))
%></td>
<td><a href="/Advert/Modify/<%# Eval("ID") %>">Modify</a></td>
<td>
<% if ((bool)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CanPublish")) { %>
<a href="/Advert/Publish/<%# Eval("ID") %>" onclick="return
confirm('Re-publish this advert?');">
Publish</a>
<% } %>
<% if ((bool)Eval("CanWithdraw")) { %>
<a href="/Advert/Withdraw/<%# Eval("ID") %>" onclick="return
confirm('Withdraw this advert?');">
Withdraw</a>
<% } %>
</td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>


Can someone please tell me how I am supposed to implement the <% if %>
statements in the above markup? I am using the Web Extensions so I don't
have a <form runat="server">. This is annoying me :-) Surely it should be
simple enough to output different HTML depending on a boolean?



Thanks

Pete
 
write support functions, and call them:

<td>
<%# GetText(Container.DataItem)%>
</a>
</td>

The question was how do I do the "if" part?

I can't get hold of CanWithdraw for the current item. Container.DataItem
throws an exception that there is no Container.

you put the if in the methods GetUrl, etc.

in a repeator only binding expressions have access to the dataitem.
