Nested Repeaters Where condition

Hi

I have a nested repeater to show some info from a Custom Table but the WhereCondition does not seem to be working. Can anyone caste any light on if this is the best way to do this and how to get it to work.

This code sits inside the transformation of the Parent Repeater.

<cms:queryrepeater
ID="repeaterMediaType"
runat="server"
QueryName="Chamber.ResourceFileTypes.selectall"
TransformationName="Chamber.ResourceFileTypes.ShowFileThumbNail"
WhereCondition='<%# "ResourceFileType = "+Eval("ResourceType")%>'
>
</cms:queryrepeater>

Certified Developer 8	richard - 4/28/2010 5:49:58 PM RE:Nested Repeaters Where condition The Parent is a CMSRepeater. I think that what I am doing will only work with a CMSRepeater for the child as you would need to have Deferred Loading ... is this correct?

RE:Nested Repeaters Where condition

Hi Richard,

Regrettably, query repeater doesn't have delayed loading property so it is not possible to use it as nested repeater easily, but I have prepared article with description of workaround that you can use to set where condition for nested query repeater. Please see http://devnet.kentico.com/Knowledge-Base/Web-parts---Controls/How-to-use-query-repeater-as-nested-repeater.aspx for more details.

Best Regards,

Martin Dobsicek
