Can you explain please what is occurring in this asp row?
<a href="AddItem.aspx?c=<%# Eval("CollectionID") %>">[edit item]</a>
This looks like an HTML anchor tag which has embedded in the href
attribute an ASP.NET binding expression.
In this case, the binding expression evaluates a property called CollectionID
.
It is not clear exactly what you don't understand about it, so without further information, this is all I can answer.
