Weird Problem: Repeater Not Showing

[TheConeHead]

I have (what seems to me) as a strange problem. I have a repeater that is not showing. I do not get an error or anything, but the repeater is not producing what I think it should. It is not caching - I have made hard-coded text changes to other areas and those show, but the repeater prodices nothing - why might this be??

Going on that information, it could be anything. Maybe you haven't bound it, maybe it has no data, maybe the Visible property has been set to False...

Here's a short hand version of the code:

<script language="C#" runat="server">
SqlConnection conn = .....;
SqlDataAdapter getqs = new SqlDataAdapter(query);

DataSet quesDS = new DataSet();
getqs.Fill(quesDS, "table");

quesr.DataSource = quesDS.Tables["table"].DefaultView;
quesr.DataBind();
}
</script>

<asp:Repeater id="quesr" runat="server">
.....
</asp:Repeater>

See anything... or need anymore detail?

Step through the code and see how many rows are in "quesDS.Tables["table"]"

Something screwy is happening... I can not get anything returned... ok here is a bigger picture:

if (!IsPostBack) {


} else {
    <script language="C#">
      testLabel.Text="rows = ";

    </script>
    <asp:Label id="testLabel" runat="Server">Am I here?</asp:Label>
}

When I view this code it says: "Am I here?" Shouldn't it be set to "rows = " It seems like the stuff in the script tag is not affecting the stuff outside of it....

It looks as though you are mixing ASP.NET code inline like classic ASP and I can't see how that would work.

See my thinking is off... my problem revolves around the fact that I could not get a form to submit to another page it always submits back (via the action) to the same page... which is why I put in the if (!IsPostback) {... is there a way to get a form to go to anther page?

In ASP.NET 2.0 there is cross posting, in 1.1 there is not. If you are using 1.1 or 1.0, then try using Server.Transfer. Or, pass values in a querystring or session variables.

I think my problem was that I had two void Page_load's...
