<asp:Repeater >, checkbox values and ASP.NET 2.0

[deathtospam]

A few weeks ago, I created a Classic ASP page that connects to a
machine with SQL Server installed on it, prompts the user to select a
database on that server, then lists all of user-created stored
procedures in that database. The user can select any of those stored
procedures by clicking on checkboxes; after submitting their
selections, a script to delete and then re-create each stored procedure
will be generated. Now I'm trying to do the same thing using ASP.NET.

I wanted to render the checkboxes inside an HTML table column, so I
avoided using the <asp:CheckBoxLi stcontrol. Instead, I opted to use
an <asp:Repeaterco ntrol with an HTML <input type="checkbox"
runat="server"t ag inside the Repeater's <ItemTemplatese rver-side
element. Here's an snippet of my ASPX code:

=============== =============== =============== =========
<asp:Repeater runat="server" ID="StoredProce dureCheckboxLis t"
Visible="false" >
<HeaderTemplate >
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="3" width="100%">
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate >
<tr>
<td style="width:30 px;"><input type="checkbox"
name="SelectedS toredProcedureI ds" value="<%#
DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item, "StoredProcedur eID") %>"
title="[<%# DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item, "StoredProcedur eID")
%>] <%# DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item, "StoredProcedur eName")
%>"></td>
<td><%# DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item,
"StoredProcedur eName") %></td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate >
</table><br>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
=============== =============== =============== =========

The above ASPX code works, and I had no problem retrieving the selected
checkbox string values (via the Request.Form collection) after
postback. However, I also wanted all of the checkboxes the user
selected to remain selected after postback. And that's when I realized
that I didn't know how to get a reference (via C# code-behind page) to
the collection of checkboxes inside the <asp:Repeaterco ntrol.

I know I could probably use the page's ViewState to do this, but I
wanted to start simple. I've also posted a barebones version of my
project ( http://tinyurl.com/yztohf ), to help illustrate my problem:
the project is comprised of three small files (ASPX, CS & Web.config)
authored in Visual Studio .NET 2005. All you need to do is modify
Web.config so that the [MyDatabase] connection string points to your
database, and it should work just fine. Any advice or tips would be
greatly appreciated... thanks in advance!
