Get Repeater's Items

Question

I am trying to get all repeater's selected checkboxes of repeater's item just before page movement (pagination), and store them in some place.

 foreach (RepeaterItem ri in rpt.Items)
  {        
      CheckBox box = (CheckBox)ri.FindControl("chkBox");
       if (box.Checked)
       {
          ...
       }
  }

The problem is where do i call this function from? I've tried to call it from ObjectDataSource1_Selected (I use objectdatasource to populate repeater) and ObjectDataSource1_Selecting but rpt.Items.Count is also 0.

rpt_PreRender() event, returns the right number of items but it happens before the selection of checkboxes and not after.

What can i do?

Answer 1

the way you are looking is not possible...plz try using this code...

if (Repeater1.Items.Count > 0)
    {
        for (int count = 0; count < Repeater1.Items.Count; count++)
        {
            CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)Repeater1.Items[count].FindControl("CheckBox1");
            if (chk.Checked)
            {

            }
        }
    }
