Databound DIV in asp .net

Looking for a custom ASP .NET control were the InnerHTML of a DIV is connected to a databas to fetch the content to render the HTML content from the databas inside the DIV.

Is there one out there I have missed o开发者_运维知识库r anyone could tell if its possible to make my own DIV component to make it DataBound?

Thanks, Stefan

You can't databind to a div, but you can databind to something like a Repeater, which is mainly good for showing rows of data (i.e. repeating the same markup for multiple data items).

If you just want to show one field from one row, you're probably better off with something like a literal:

<div>
    <asp:Literal id="myLiteral" runat="server" />
</div>

And then in the code behind...

myLiteral.Text = "some string from the database or wherever";
