ASP.NET tip: Autonumber Rows in ASP.NET Repeater control
Q: How to print the current row number in an ASP.NET Repeater control ?
A: The easiest way to autonumber rows in Repeater is to use markup or ItemDataBound event. Since each row has ItemIndex property when created/bounded. Therefore for Repeater markup one can write the following:
< ItemTemplate>
< %# Container.ItemIndex + 1 %>
< /ItemTemplate>
Or in the ItemDataBound event (for more complex rendering) this should look like so:
if ((e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem) ||
(e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item))
{
int num = e.Item.ItemIndex + 1;
// some code
}
Enjoy :)
