Hi,

   repeaters templates are ITemplates, so you can not add the controls
straightly to them, because ITemplate doesn't have a Controls collection.
Solution is simple, insert any control to Repeaters ItemTemplate (or any
other template), get the control in code by
Repeater.FindControl("YourControlID") and add your controls to it's Controls
collection. Use different ID's in each Template.

Hi Nathan,

You can create templates by implementing ITemplate interface. I will give
you a sample example below. All you need to do is to create your control
structure using the "container" control. "InstantiateIn" method will be
executed automatically when the RepeaterItem is created by the Framework.
You can set your template like this:

#######################
   Repeater1.ItemTemplate = new MyRepeaterItemTemplate();
#######################

You can also create different kinds of constructors to deliver some data to
the template.

And the template class something like below:

#######################
   public class MyRepeaterItemTemplate : ITemplate
   {

       #region ITemplate Members

       public void InstantiateIn(Control container)
       {
           // do something else
           container.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("Some text"));
       }

       #endregion
   }
