DataBind() alternative?

Has anyone come across a way to bind simple properties (e.g. <%#
DateTime.Now.Ye ar %>, <%# UserName %in the underlying HTML) without
doing a general DataBind(); call?

Not only does it seem a massive waste of resources, I find this call
extremely annoying, particularly when working with Master pages where
inevitably I'll end up wiping out any manually build controls such as
added options to dropdowns.
It would be great if there was a Page.DataBind(f alse); that didn't
re-
bind children controls!
Thanks in advance!

Hi... if you what to use <%# .... %databinding constract in html..
i am afraid you must got to call databind method...
well if you are consern about pertial databinding just call the
controls databind method..

for instance you you have 5 grid. and you what to refresh just 4th...
dont call page.databind.. ..
call grid4.databind( )... some thing like that

Thanks

I have <asp:Table... </asp:Table> on my webform. In codebehind, I populate a DataTable whose data should appear in the asp:Table. I created my own code to populate the asp:Table with the DataTable, then I discovered the asp:Table has a DataBind method. But the method takes no args and so I'm confused how to use it. Is there a link to see how DataBind works for asp:Table? Should I just use my own code anyway? Thanks... Here's my...

Hi, I've got a web label control which I set a databind expression on the Text attribute in the html for the page (aspx file). At runtime, I want to override this attribute, so before I do MyLabel.databind() (or actually Page.DataBind()), I set Text to "". This doesn't work because then the databind comes along and redefines the Text attribute.

I was going through an article on datagrid control in ASP.NET and found the use of databind a bit confusing. So the default behavior in a editable datagrid row is to show a Update and a Cancel Button when a user wants to edit the datagrid. What I found confusing was the use of databinding when this cancel button is pressed. When we are pressing the Cancel button we are not changing the datasource...then why do we need to re-bind the web...

I'm at a loss here... My FormView control automatically performs a databind at each postback on the server. But in some cases I don't want this to happen. Like when the business layer decides that some of the information in the controls cannot be accepted. But then the FormView binds to the datasource again, and the input in all contols is lost. And the user will have to type it all over again. In ASP.NET 1.1 we could simply say: If Not...

Say you are creating a page which contains a child control which uses a DataList or DataGrid control. In a DataList, the rows are dynamic controls and are data bound, so you have to first load the data source and then DataBind. The problem arises when the containing Page calls DataBind before your child control, say in their Page_Load. So you have a Page with Page_Load calling DataBind and a child control with a Page_Load and a...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
