Web Part having capability to show a list of documents ( Must allow Transformation )

Hi All,

I am looking for a web part which can allow me to show a list of documents and also have the ability to include transformations. What I want to do is, show a list of documents to the user and then when the user clicks on it the document instead of getting downloaded get's opened in a new tab or the same tab ( As they are HTML documents). Can anyone also tell me which default transformation can help me in this case ? If not default , any idea on the new transformation to achieve my goal ?

Thanks

RE:Web Part having capability to show a list of documents ( Must allow Transformation )

Hello,

for your scenario, Repeater is the webpart you are looking for.

As for the transformation code, if you have sample Coporate Site, you can find a greate example if you go to Company -> Offices.

If you view this page in CMS Desk, you will find an Offices repeater. You should then have a look on the transformation it uses for listing Office Documents.

You will probably be most interested in this line of code:


<a href="<%# GetDocumentUrl() %>" class="header"><%# Eval("OfficeName", true) %></a>
