Advice on which control better to list / show articles.

[keepitsimple]

Hi,
Pls. keep in mind that while I've been doing web development a while, I'm pretty new to Asp.Net (Forms...learned a bit MVC).

I got a page on which I want to list categories (it's basically a FAQ thing) on the side, and either a list of items (links) or, if such item have been clicked, the actual article in the other part of the page.

I got the categories listed now (using a TreeViewControl) and was wondering which control (this controls are a bit confusing, since there's nothing like it in other web dev technologies) would be more suitable to either show a list of articles or the actual article itself when clicked?

Hope you guys here don't mind stupid newbie questions here. blush.

Hello,

There are a number of DataBound controls in ASP.Net that you can use to create a list of items, such as the DataList and the GridView, but probably the most flexible is the Repeater, and in my opinion, this would be a good fit for what you are trying to do.
