Dynamicly setting readonly in through a property

Hi

Looking for a way to bind a readonly property on a textbox to a parameter,
not having to cycle through all controls, but rather setting <textbox

id="myTextbox" readonly="<%# SetReadOnly %> where SetReadOnly is a public

property, saved to a Session variable.

Can't get it to work, eventhough the designer shows and says that it is
databound... When I debug I can see that it never accesses the property, as
if it just says 'Okay, the vaule "<%# SetReadOnly %>" is not "true", it must
be "false"...'

Hope somebody can (and will ;o) ) help me...

Thanks...

Dear Martin,

I am not sure about the actual context of your problem.

If you set a data binding code that refers to a public variable of the
page. You must call Page.DataBind() to bind the variable to target
element. Please Check wheither you have Page.DataBind() method called
in your pageload event.

Thanks.

Hi Masudur

Thanks for your swift reply, turns out you are right. :o) I just added a
"Databind();" ind the Page_Load(), and then it worked...

I actually found out myself shortly after posting this question - and now I
wanted to go close it myself, but you where faster than me ;o)
