I am trying to obtain information from a parent control in ASP .net.
First let me show you the code:
What I'm trying to do is obtain the value of "ProductName" in rptProducts where the text is red inside dlstPhases. I've tried Parent.Container.DataItem() But that doesn't work. I can't seem to figure it out.Code:<asp:Repeater id="rptProducts" runat="server"> <ItemTemplate> <h8> <b> <%# Container.DataItem ("ProductName")%></b> <asp:Button id="btnNewPhase" runat="server" BackColor="Blue" ForeColor="White" Text="New Phase" Font-Size="XX-Small" Width="60px" ToolTip="Click this button to create a new phase for this product"></asp:Button> </h8> <asp:dataList ID="dlstPhases" Runat="Server" DataSource='<%# FilterPhases( Container.DataItem( "ProductID" ) )%>' RepeatColumns='5' RepeatDirection="Horizontal" CellSpacing="20"> <ItemTemplate> <a href='<%# String.Format( "CDContentsEdit.aspx?id={0}&product={1}",Container.DataItem( "CDID" ),"Product Name") %>' > <%# Container.DataItem( "Phase" ) %> </a> </ItemTemplate> </asp:dataList> </ItemTemplate> </asp:Repeater>
Any ideas?
