Create a HTML table with an ASP repeater, repeating horizontally

Question

I\'m trying to build a HTML table using an ASP repeater:

Answer 1

I think the core problem is that Repeater isn't designed to repeat horizontally.

Maybe you should try using DataList which allows to specify the RepeatingDirection.

Update

If you don't need to repeat horizontally (like your question suggests "...two lines and X columns") your Repeatershould look like this

<asp:Repeater ID="RepeaterVersionsForPie" runat="server">

    <HeaderTemplate>
        <table id="VersionsTable">
    </HeaderTemplate>

    <ItemTemplate>
        <tr>
            <th><%# Eval("nameVersion") %></th>
            <!-- Important: Put attributes in single quotes so they don't get
                 mixed up with your #Eval("xxx") double quotes! -->
            <td tag='<%#Eval("idVersion")%>'>
                <%# Eval("DocumentName") %>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </ItemTemplate>

    <FooterTemplate>
        </table>
    </FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

Note that you must not repeat the <table> in your <ItemTemplate> and to use single quotes when you need to put your Eval inside an attribute.
