Data Binding Server Controls
(June 16, 2005)
ASP.NET introduces a new declarative data binding syntax. This extremely flexible syntax permits the developer to bind not only to data sources, but also to simple properties, collections, expressions, and even results returned from method calls. The following table shows some examples of the new syntax.
| Simple property | Customer: <%# custID %> |
| Collection | Orders: <asp:ListBox id="List1" datasource='<%# myArray %>' runat="server"> |
| Expression | Contact: <%# ( customer.FirstName + " " + customer.LastName ) %> |
| Method result | Outstanding Balance: <%# GetBalance(custID) %> |
