Databinding syntax with xmlnodelist

Hi,

I have the following line of code that continues to give me the "Object
not set to an instance of an object" error:

<%# CType(Container.DataItem,
System.Xml.XmlNode))("ElementName/ElementName").InnerText %>

Could someone tell me why this isn't working? It may help to tell you
that I'm binding a repeater control to an xmlnodelist (the xmlnodelist's
data comes from an xml file that has a root namespace).

Thanks in advance,
Roshawn

Never mind. I've figured it out:

<%# Ctype(Container.DataItem,
System.Xml.XmlNode))("ElementName").Item("ElementN ame").InnerText %>
