DataGrid

[Cudabean]

Here's a problem I faced not long ago:

Let's say I've got a DataGrid. Column 1 contains integers in the range of 1-10. Let's say I want to add a Column 2 that presents one of three images: A smiley face when Column 1 >= 7, a sad face when Column 1 is <= 3 and a neutral face for 4-6. Is that feasible?

Thanks

You need to use a helper method.

Thanks! You know, the styling on that site is both hilarious and outrageous.

So, I should be able to do something like this? (I took their example and inserted the img references in the codebehind)
aspx:

<asp:DataGrid id="YourID" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Status">
  <ItemTemplate>
    <%#ShowStatus(Container.DataItem("online"))%>
  </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>

codebehind

Function ShowStatus(val)
  If val = 0 Then
    ShowStatus = "<img src=Offline.gif>"
  Else
    ShowStatus = "<img src=Online.gif>"
  End If
End Function
