How to dynamically refresh a .NET databound repeater control

Question

I have a .NET repeater control that is data-bound to a List. As part of the Repeater's Item Collection, I have a "Remove Button" that effectively removes this current List element.

This works, in code-behind I can successfully remove an item from the datasource of the Repeater.

My problem is this : when I reset the updated datasource and call MyRepeater.DataBind() again, the Repeater interface does not refresh with the Item removed.

I am looking for the event to essentially redraw or refresh the Repeater based on the updated List. Thanks for any pointers or examples.

Answer 1

You need to call the 'DataBind' method on your datasource, then call 'DataBind' on your Repeater control.

Answer 2

Are you feeding the refreshed data source?

If you are setting data source in code-behind, you need to set it with refreshed data then call DataBind method.
