Problems injecting server side variables using <%#

I was hav开发者_开发技巧ing problems inserting a string into the following tag :

<tr id="rowBulkOptions" style='<%# sBulkOptionsRowStyle %>'>

Don't ask why I'm using tables :)

sBulkOptionsRowStyle is a Public string in the aspx.vb file.

Seemingly the only way I can get this to render is to put

Page.DataBind()

in the Page_Load, Page_PreRender etc.. However this causes me problems because Page.DataBind() binds all controls on the page.

I could use <%= BUT another part of the code inserts controls into the page and apparently you can't use <%= and insert controls.

Is there a way I can just say 'look, put sBulkOptionsRowStyle into the page please!' ?

Thanks.

The <%# tag is used when binding to a repeating control, I take it this is not what you are doing?

As you are dynamically modifying the controls then as you stated you can also not use <%=.

My suggestion would be that you add the tag runat="server" to your tr and then assign the variable to the Style attribute of the control within the page load/init of your code behind.

e.g.

<tr id="rowBulkOptions" runat="server">

And in code behind

rowBulkOptions.Attributes["Style"] = sBulkOptionsRowStyle;
