Normally I would set <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Name") %>
while filling a dataset with adapter or with a reader and assigning values
to <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Name") %> as each row is read
and rendered. The data grid is confusing me . I never used one before until
now.
so somewhere in here:
articleList.DataSource = dirInfo.GetFiles("*.*";)
'Before I bind somehow I need to make the url = the domain that I am working
with. So that is where I am confused. I also was trying to figure out how I
could just use a datareader and output the files that way with a
stringbuilder and making custom html list. I know it is probably easy to use
a datagrid but coming from asp classic it feels like osme things are just
more difficult in .net. I mean in asp classic making a list of files and
modifying alink on output was easy. I search google but find the same info
everywhere and it is usually working with a database and not file directory
contents.....
articleList.DataBind()
I have this in the code behind:
If Not IsPostBack Then
'PanelUser.Visible = False
'PanelAdmin.Visible = False
'PanelNoAccess.Visible = True
Dim strFtpFolder
strFtpFolder = Session("FtpFolder")
Dim dirInfo As New DirectoryInfo(strFtpFolder)
'Dim dirInfo As New DirectoryInfo(Server.MapPath(""))
'articleList.DataSource = dirInfo.GetFiles("*.aspx")
articleList.DataSource = dirInfo.GetFiles("*.*";)
articleList.DataBind()
End If 'If Not IsPostBack Then
