FormView - set mode in aspx based on url param

Hi;

I would like my FormView to be in Edit/Insert mode depending on if there is
a username=abc (not abc specifically, just that there is a username=) in the
url. Or that my ObjectDataSource select finds something. If it's there, it's
edit mode. Otherwise it's insert mode.

At present I am doing:
       if (! IsPostBack)
        {
            if (Request.QueryString["username"] != null)
                EditUser.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit);
            else
                EditUser.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Insert);
        }

Hi Dave,

I think your current approach is reasonable. Is there anything else you
worry about this?

No - just was wondering if it could be done in the aspx part.
