[2008] Get data from listview/accordion
Guys,
I'm using the accordion control from the ajaxtoolkit. I have it displaying data from an xml file with a custom control, but I now need to get data back out.
How can I cycle thru the items in the accordion control and get the data entered? I need to save down a new xml file.
Here you can see where I am setting up the control...
Thanks
Bob
