    <p>I need to create a series of dynamically created buttons inside of a repeater. These buttons names are coming from a database. When a user clicks a button, some hidden text beside the name appears. And disappears when clicked again. The text will have to be either defined in the html or the code behind. </p> <p>Here is some code to demonstrate what I'm thinking. </p> <pre><code> &lt;asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" DataSourceID="DecisionDetailsDS" runat="server" &gt; &lt;ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;asp:Button ID="DecisionButton" runat="server" OnClick="BTN_ShowText" BorderStyle="None" Text='&lt;%# Eval("Decision_Type_Dsc") %&gt;' /&gt; &lt;asp:Label ID="DecisionLabel" Visible="false" runat="server" /&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;AlternatingItemTemplate&gt; &lt;asp:Button ID="DecisionButton" runat="server" OnClick="BTN_ShowText" BorderStyle="None" Text='&lt;%# Eval("Decision_Type_Dsc") %&gt;' /&gt; &lt;asp:Label ID="DecisionLabel" Visible="false" runat="server" /&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/AlternatingItemTemplate&gt; &lt;/asp:Repeater&gt; public void BTN_ShowText(Object sender, EventArgs e) { Label TestLabel = (Label)FindControl("DecisionLabel"); Button TestButton = (Button)FindControl("DecisionButton"); switch(TestButton.Text) { case "Dismissed": TestLabel.Text = "Testing 1 2 3"; break; case "Anything": TestLabel.Text = "Testing 2 3 4"; break; } if (TestLabel.Visible == false) { TestLabel.Visible = true; } else { TestLabel.Visible = false; } } } </code></pre> <p>I know this doesn't work. I get nulls returned. Whereas I need the id of the button and it's corresponding label. Hopefully this gives you an idea of what I'm trying to do. Any suggestions are appreciated especially if you provide my some code to work with. I thought maybe using jquery?</p> <p>I am new to .net/jquery programming. Hopefully someone can help me. Thanks!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
