    <p>I have a repeater with a table in it with lots of properties of the td's bound by the repeater. I have had to add a runat server to each td so I can add a visible attribute, because depending on the data some tds aren't visible.</p> <p>Now I have added the runat server I am having a problem setting the background colour of my tds. It is done with a bound value. When I add my &lt;%%> tags to my style they are output as plain text, It even says in my html that "This is not a scriptlet. Will output as plain text" where as the rest of my &lt;%%> tags bind correctly. </p> <p>Why won't my style bind anymore?</p> <p>Other tags I add will, but just not style?</p> <p>Here's a cut down version of my repeater.</p> <pre><code> &lt;table id="Table1" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="groups"&gt; &lt;tr id="Tr1" class="thead"&gt; &lt;td colspan='&lt;%#AllowedItems.Count() %&gt;' align="center"&gt; items &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr class="theadL"&gt; &lt;td id="Td1" runat="server" visible='&lt;%#ItemAllowed("Item1")%&gt;'&gt; item1 &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td id="Td2" runat="server" visible='&lt;%#ItemAllowed("Item2")%&gt;'&gt; item2 &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td id="Td3" runat="server" visible='&lt;%#ItemAllowed("Item3")%&gt;'&gt; item 3 &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" runat="server" DataSource='&lt;%# GetData((int)Eval("Id"))%&gt;'&gt; &lt;ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td id="Td9" title='&lt;%#Eval("Item1Status")%&gt;' runat="server" visible='&lt;%#ItemAllowed("Item1")%&gt;' style='background-color: &lt;%#Eval("Item1StatusColour")%&gt;;'&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td id="Td10" title='&lt;%#Eval("Item2Status")%&gt;' runat="server" visible='&lt;%#ItemAllowed("Item3")%&gt;' style='background-color: &lt;%#Eval("Item3StatusColour")%&gt;;'&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td id="Td11" title='&lt;%#Eval("Item3Status")%&gt;' runat="server" visible='&lt;%#ItemAllowed("Item4")%&gt;' style='background-color: &lt;%#Eval("Item4StatusColour")%&gt;;'&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;/asp:Repeater&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>Update</strong></p> <p>The style renders like this :</p> <pre><code> style="background-color:&amp;lt;%# &amp;quot;&amp;quot;+ Eval(&amp;quot;Item1StatusColour&amp;quot;)%&gt;;" </code></pre> <p>All the rest of the attribute render how they should.</p> <p><strong>Update</strong> This is the ItemAllowed method as requested</p> <pre><code> public bool ItemAllowed(string item) { //allowed items is a list&lt;string&gt; return AllowedItems.Contains(item); } </code></pre>

    2. COI have added how the style renders as this was a sample bit of code just to show the problem, the rest render as normal (other than visible, because if it's invisible it doesn't show at all)

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
