.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / September 2007Repost: variable number of pictures to be shown
I want to display an array of pictures and I don't know beforehand how many there are in the array. I want there to be up to four pictures in a row (all the same size, of course), aligned to the left. When the fifth picture appears, it would start the next row. Someone suggested the datagrid control, but I don't see how to use that one here. I am asking how to code the visual aspect of the page so that it will handle the variable number in the manner I want. As far as specifying the source of the pictures, I can do that in the Page_Load. I know this is aspx and vb, but the way I did it in php was to created a string (in php) containing all the html when I was loading the page, and in the appropriate place in the html <body> I merely echoed (wrote) that string. How do I do it here? -- Shelly > How do I do it here? The asp:Repeater webcontrol is perfectly suited to this - just specify the number of columns as 4: http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&aq=t&hl=en-GB&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4 GGIH_en-GBGB220GB220&q=asp+repeater+columns  SignatureMark Rae ASP.NET MVP http://www.markrae.net >> How do I do it here? > > The asp:Repeater webcontrol is perfectly suited to this - just specify the > number of columns as 4: > http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&aq=t&hl=en-GB&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4 GGIH_en-GBGB220GB220&q=asp+repeater+columns I didn't find column in the properties list. > I didn't find column in the properties list. In fact, a DataList would be even simpler than a Repeater - just set the RepeatDirection and RepeatColumns properties, and you're good to go... http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/aspplus/samples/webforms/ctrlref/webctrl /datalist/doc_datalist.aspx SignatureMark Rae ASP.NET MVP http://www.markrae.net
