My question is too simple but puzziling. i have a develop a mvc pages to learn. i used Repeater server control.
<asp:Repeater ID="ProductList" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
<li>
<%#Eval("Name") %>
</li>
</ItemTemplate>
also : (VIEW)
public partial class ListProduct : ViewPage
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ProductList.DataSource = ViewData["Products"];
ProductList.DataBind();
}
}
My Repeater Server control is working good. BUT i've added a GridView control. An Error returns me :
<asp:Content ID="Content4" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder2" runat="server">
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="id" HeaderText="" Visible="false" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Name" HeaderText="" Visible="true" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
<asp:Repeater ID="ProductList" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
<li>
<%#Eval("Name") %>
</li>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
</asp:Content>
VIEW:
GridView1.DataSource = ViewData["Products"];
GridView1.DataBind();
Error**: Control 'ContentPlaceHolder2_GridView1' of type 'GridView' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.**
i understood and solved probblem by adding form runat server. But i dont understand REASON? Repeater and GridView are Server control. There is no error repeater in only repeater usage. GRidView return error. Why?
