QueryString not returning anything

[Landes]

Hiya,

I have the following code in a C# aspx page, but I keep getting the
error that 'ExceptionCateg oryId_' not found. Looks like the
QueryString is not returning anything.

<asp:DataGrid id=DataGrid1 runat="server"
AutoGenerateCol umns="False" DataSource ="<%#
Pfc.PfcCentreEx ceptions.Curren t.DataSet %>" DataMember
='ExceptionCate goryId_<%=Reque st.QueryString["Category"]%>'
AllowSorting="T rue" PageSize="5" bordercolor="Wh ite"
BORDERWIDTH="1p x" GRIDLINES="Hori zontal" CELLPADDING="0"
Width="630px">

Using this code to test, the value is displayed correctly on the same
page.
<script language="javas cript">
alert('<%=Reque st.QueryString["Category"]%>');
</script>

Can anyone point me to some clues on where I have gone wrong? I'm
obviously missing something here which i can't figure out. :( Anyone
with any idea to help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi Landes,
<script runat="server">

{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
DataGrid1.DataS ource = Pfc.PfcCentreEx ceptions.Curren t.DataSet;
DataGrid1.DataB ind();
}
}
</script>

<asp:DataGrid ID="DataGrid1" runat="server" AutoGenerateCol umns="False"
DataMember='<%# "ExceptionCateg oryId_" + Request.QuerySt ring["Category"] %>'
AllowSorting="T rue" PageSize="5" BorderColor="Wh ite" BorderWidth="1p x"
GridLines="Hori zontal" CellPadding="0"
Width="630px">

Example:

//Codebehind:
protected string test = "";
private void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
if(Request.Quer yString["test"]!=null)
test = Request.QuerySt ring["test"];

//Page (ASPX):
<script>
var test ='<%=test %>'
alert( test);
</script>

<%= is a shortcut for Response.Write( ). In other words, it sends the
evaluated value to the client response stream. Using it in a pure
server-side definition, like DataMember, has no meaning. DataMember is
intented for things like table names. What are you trying to set it to?
